Diagnosis of Neuropathy

Treatment

In order to provide the proper treatment a proper diagnosis of Neuropathy has to be made.  One of the important diagnostic techniques that we specialize in is EMG nerve conduction study.  With this test the nerves of the body are tested and we could find out which nerves are affected, which part of the nerve is not working, the severity of the disease, and we get an idea of what is the disease process that is causing the Neuropathy. This is a very important test for making the proper diagnosis of neuropathy when done appropriately. Based on the EMG nerve conduction study we perform additional testing for the diagnosis including blood work and imaging like MRIs.  Depending on these studies, the proper diagnosis of Neuropathy is made and a treatment plan could be designed.
