Summary

This study tested whether videonystagmography (VNG) with caloric testing, a standard balance exam, can distinguish people with vestibular migraine from those with other migraines and healthy individuals. Researchers compared eye movement patterns in 173 participants across three groups. The goal was to see if VNG could become a reliable diagnostic tool for this often-misdiagnosed condition.
