Electrocochleography is a technique used for recording electrical potentials generated in the inner ear and auditory nerve in response to sounds presented in the ear. The responses are elicited by placing an electrode in the inner ear and recording the electrical potentials elicited in response to sounds presented. ECochG is useful in assisting in the diagnosis of Meniere's Disease and is part of the balance assessment.

Frequently asked questions about Balance Assessments

  • A full balance assessment can take between 1 to 2 hours in total to complete. The Audiologist will instruct you for each test performed. The tests largely involve looking at various stationery and moving objects with goggles on. The video cameras in the goggles track eye movements. We evaluate the eye movements seen on the tests performed to gain further diagnostic information regarding the vestibular (inner ear balance) organs.
