The Specialty Hospital has an fully unit equipped center with the latest scientific methods for studying the pathophysiology of the brain, nerves and muscles:, Where the following services are available:
1- (Electroencephalogram) EEG: It is a test through which the electrical activity in the brain is documented, where it is possible to reflect any disease hurts the performance of the cerebral nerve cells in brain cells in the form of of an importance in the waves of test plan.
This test is used to diagnose pathological conditions related to the brain or diseases that affect the brain itself, such as:
2- Electromyogram and Nerve Conduction Study : EMG and NCD). In this test the electrical activity of the muscle, peripheral nerves and neuromuscular junction are recorded and analyzed. Through the insertion of small electrodes to certain muscles, to check the electrical signal generated by muscle contractions. On the other hand, examination of nerve conduction velocity is done.
These tests can be used to diagnose a lot of neurological diseases which include:
Neuromuscular conduction disorders:
Nerve Conduction Disorders:
3- Visual Evoked Potential (VEP) The VEP tests the function of the visual pathway from the retina to the occipital cortex. VEPs are most useful in testing optic nerve function.
It is used to diagnose certain disorders such as :
