NEUROLOGICAL TESTING

  • Open Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI): This test is used to scan patients’ brains to determine the severity of their injury. Doctors use this technology to get an image of the interior of the brain.
  • Electromyography (EMG): This test can help doctors to determine if muscular weakness is due to a neurological problem through the insertion of a small electrode into the skin and muscle.
  • Nerve Conduction Velocity (NVC): This test measures nerve conduction rates, and it can diagnose pain and certain disorders like diabetic neuropathy and carpal tunnel syndrome.
