Introduction to Neurodiagnostics

Welcome to the Neurodiagnostics page of Foley James D MD, a trusted name in the field of health and neurology. Neurodiagnostics is a specialized branch of medicine that deals with diagnostic tests and procedures for evaluating and diagnosing neurological conditions. Our experienced team utilizes advanced neurodiagnostic techniques to accurately assess and diagnose various neurological disorders and provide appropriate treatments for our patients.

Importance of Neurodiagnostics

Neurological disorders can be complex and often challenging to diagnose due to their diverse range of symptoms. Neurodiagnostics plays a crucial role in identifying and understanding these conditions by employing a variety of diagnostic tools and techniques. By utilizing neurodiagnostic procedures, our team can accurately assess brain function, detect abnormalities, and guide personalized treatment plans.

Neurodiagnostic Procedures and Tests

Our comprehensive range of neurodiagnostic procedures and tests allows us to evaluate and diagnose various neurological conditions. These procedures are performed by our skilled professionals in a safe and comfortable environment. Some of the common neurodiagnostic procedures include:

• Electroencephalography (EEG): This non-invasive test records electrical activity in the brain and helps in diagnosing epilepsy, sleep disorders, and brain abnormalities.
• Evoked Potential Testing: This test measures the brain's response to auditory, visual, and sensory stimuli, aiding in the diagnosis of conditions such as multiple sclerosis.
• Nerve Conduction Studies (NCS): NCS measures the speed of electrical impulses through the nerves, helping to evaluate nerve damage or conditions like carpal tunnel syndrome.
• Electromyography (EMG): EMG records muscle activity and helps diagnose conditions such as muscular dystrophy and nerve-related disorders.
• Neuropsychological Testing: This assessment evaluates cognitive functions, including memory, attention, and problem-solving skills, aiding in the diagnosis of conditions like dementia and ADHD.
• Brainstem Auditory Evoked Response (BAER): BAER helps in measuring the brain's response to sound stimuli, facilitating the diagnosis of hearing-related conditions.
