Neuroimaging progress of otogenic vertigo

The incidence of otogenic vertigo accounts for approximately 70% of all vertigo, presenting a sensation of surrounding objects moving and balance disturbances, accompanied by nausea, vomiting, and emotional changes, severely affecting quality of life in patients. Neuroimaging techniques have been widely used to observe structural and functional changes in related brain regions, and provide new insights into the mechanisms of vertigo. This paper aims to review the recent neuroimaging advancements in the study of central nervous mechanisms of otogenic vertigo, offering a imaging evidence for further exploration of related neuropathological mechanisms of otogenic vertigo.
