A doctor has provided 1 answer

Vertigo: VNG is videonystagmogram. Test for peripheral (ear) balance function. Video is for tracking and recording eye movements. Test may tell whether or not peripheral dysfunction of vestibular system, asymmetry, etc. Flying may make you more dizzy, prone to nausea and vomiting and unsteady on feet, ie. risk to self and other passengers.
