What Causes Dizziness And Spinning Sensation?

I have been suffering from dizzy spells and the room starts spinning. they episodes last from 1/2 to 2 or 3 hours. I went to my medical doctor who referred me to specialist who confirm its not vertigo. Now I have to go for a balance test to confirm its not vertigo. He also wants me to get a brain scan. what could this all mean.
