EEG is a test used to find problems related to electrical activity of the brain. Using electrodes attached to your scalp, this test tracks and records brain wave patterns, allowing the doctor to diagnose a number of different brain disorders.
“Gold standard” for the diagnosis of epilepsy, complex seizures, nonepileptic seizures (NES). This EEG test is recorded for a prolonged period, accompanied by continuous closed-circuit video observation. The digitized EEG and recorded behavior are displayed simultaneously, allowing point-to-point correlations of recorded events and any accompanying electrographic changes.
Nerves control the muscles in the body with electrical signals called impulses. EMG measures the electrical activity of muscles at rest and when they're being used to determine causes of nerve damage and muscle damage. Nerve conduction studies (NCS)measure how well and how fast the nerves can send electrical signals.
VNG is a series of tests designed to document ability to follow visual objects and one’s ability to responds to information from the vestibular system in order to address cause of a dizziness or balance problem. The test monitors your inner ear and central motor functions.
EP involves stimulating certain neural pathways in the brain and measuring the resulting electrical activity. We often use this test for diagnosis of Mulitple Sclerosis or other demyelinating disorders.
CD measures blood flow velocities within the cervical carotid arteries, as well as the vertebral arteries and sometimes the subclavian arteries by monitoring blood flow in the brain, identifying passages clocked with plaque.
