The specialty of Clinical Neurophysiology studies the functioning of the nervous system central and peripheral; To this end, it has a series of tests that evaluate these functions,
Among them are:
- ELECTROMYOGRAMS (EMG) Indicated in various pathologies such as carpal tunnel syndrome, lumbar and cervical problems, radiculopathy, sensitivity disorders in the upper and lower limbs, in diabetic patients with polyneuropathy, etc.
- EVOKED POTENTIALS (EP)
- Visual evoked potentials (VEP) Blurred vision problems, eye pain, etc…
- Brainstem evoked potentials (PEAT) In tinnitus, decreased hearing, vertigo, etc…
- Somatosensory evoked potentials (SSPs)
- Upper limb SSPE
- Lower limb SSPE
in patients with sensory problems in the upper and lower limbs various pathologies of spinal cord origin
- ELECTROENCEPHALOGRAMS (EEG)
- Infant EEG
- EEG in adults
Indicated in epileptic seizures or for control and monitoring of epileptic patients, in headaches, syncope, memory loss, behavioral disorders, cranio-encephalic trauma, etc.
