Neurology

Diagnostic Service - EEG

An electroencephalogram (EEG) is a test used to find problems related to electrical activity of the brain. An EEG tracks and records brain wave patterns. Small metal discs with thin wires (electrodes) are placed on the scalp, and then send signals to a computer to record the results.

We offers advanced EEG testing at its centers. The patient is required to shampoo his/her hair and rinse well before visiting the center. The EEG is a simple non-invasive procedure that involves the attachment of electrodes to gel sensitized nodes of the head area, from where electrical signals in the brain are read by the probes. The gel needs to be cleaned and washed off with thorough shampooing once the procedure of recording electrical signals in the brain is complete.

Diagnostic Service - NCV

What is NCV (NERVE CONDUCTING VELOCITY)

A nerve conduction velocity test (NCV) is an electrical test that is used to determine the adequacy of the conduction of the nerve impulse. This test is used to detect signs of nerve injury.

What type of patients is refers for NCV?

  • Feeling like you're wearing a tight glove or sock.
  • Loss of Feeling
  • Nerve pain during sleep.
  • Losing Balance.
  • Unseen injuries.
  • Muscle weakness, especially in your arms or legs.
  • Sharp pains in your hands, arms, legs, or feet.

    • Diagnostic Service - Facial Nerve

    The facial nerve (the labyrinthine segment) is the seventh cranial nerve, or simply CN VII. It emerges from the pons of the brainstem, controls the muscles of facial expression, and functions in the conveyance of taste sensations from the anterior two-thirds of the tongue.

    There are numerous causes of facial nerve disorder: Trauma such as birth trauma, skull base fractures, facial injuries, middle ear injuries, or surgical trauma. Nervous system disease including stroke involving the brain stem. Infection of the ear or face, or herpes zoster of the facial nerve (Ramsay Hunt syndrome)

    Diagnostic Service - RNS(Repetitive Nerve Stimulation)

    Repetitive nerve stimulation (RNS) is an effective way to fatigue the NMJ and cause acetylcholine depletion. These studies are abnormal in more than 60% of myasthenic patients. A decremental response on RNS is the electrical correlate of clinical muscle fatigue and weakness in myasthenic patients.

    Repetitive nerve stimulation is a variant of the nerve conduction study where electrical stimulation is delivered to a motor nerve repeatedly several times per second.

    Diagnostic Service - Brachial Plexes

    The brachial plexus is the network of nerves that sends signals from your spinal cord to your shoulder, arm and hand. A brachial plexus injury occurs when these nerves are stretched, compressed, or in the most serious cases, ripped apart or torn away from the spinal cord.

    The brachial plexus is a major network of nerves transmitting signals responsible for motor and sensory innervation of the upper extremities, including the shoulder, arm, and hand.

    Diagnostic Service - EMG

    What is EMG (ELECTROMYOGRAPHY):

    Electromyography (EMG) is a diagnostic procedure that evaluates the health condition of muscles and the nerve cells. Nerve Cells known as MOTOR NEURON. EMG results can help the doctor diagnose muscle disorders, nerve disorders, and disorders affecting the connection between nerves and muscles.

    What type of patients is refers for EMG?

  • Tingling Pain (Unusual sensation in hand, feet, leg)
  • Numbness
  • Muscle weakness
  • Muscle pain or cramping
  • Muscle Disorder.
  • Inflammation caused by an injury
