What is a Nerve Conduction Study (NCS)?

A Nerve Conduction Study (NCS) is a specialized diagnostic test that measures the electrical conduction of signals in your nerves. It helps us assess nerve health, identify abnormalities, and guide the development of effective treatment plans.

Conditions We Evaluate:

Peripheral Neuropathy: Assessing nerve damage in the extremities.
Carpal Tunnel Syndrome: Diagnosing nerve compression in the wrist.
Radial Neuropathy: Evaluating nerve injuries in the arm.
