    AbstractThis review of vestibular neurology for the general neurologist delves into the multifaceted realm of vestibular neurology where we address the diagnostic and therapeutic challenges associated with dizziness, vertigo and balance disorders. We outline the standard vestibular assessments that can be understood and incorporated by the generalist, discussing their use in common vestibular disorders. Key disorders covered include acute and chronic syndromes, benign paroxysmal positional vertigo, Meniere disease, vestibular migraine and persistent postural-perceptual dizziness. We also touch on emerging advances in vestibular genotyping and novel treatment approaches for balance problems.© Author(s) (or their employer(s)) 2024. No commercial re-use.
