Diagnostic Testing Great Neck and Floral Park

What is Diagnostic Testing?

Diagnostic testing is a critical tool for identifying and managing a wide range of musculoskeletal, neurological, and systemic conditions. At our clinic, serving Great Neck and Floral Park in New York, United States, we offer advanced diagnostic services like Musculoskeletal Ultrasound (MSK US), Electromyography (EMG), and Nerve Conduction Studies (NCS). These tools are based on research and provide precise evaluations that enable us to develop effective, personalized, risk-free treatment plans for every patient. This testing provides a convenient way to identify conditions without the need for an exam, blood test, or injection, all is done in our laboratory.
 
Our services are accessible, compatible with various insurance plans like Medicare, and prioritize affordable pricing without compromising quality.

 

OUR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING SERVICES

 

1. Musculoskeletal Ultrasound (MSK US)

MSK Ultrasound is a non-invasive imaging technique that evaluates muscles, tendons, ligaments, joints, and soft tissues. It provides real-time imaging, making it effective for diagnosing conditions like:

  • Rotator cuff tears
  • Tendinitis
  • Ligament injuries
  • Fluid collections
  • Bursitis
This radiation-free method in our laboratory is safe for both acute injuries and chronic conditions, offering convenience for patients seeking comprehensive health care solutions.

 

2. Electromyography (EMG)

EMG measures the electrical activity in muscles during rest and contraction, making it a key tool for diagnosing neuromuscular disorders. Common conditions assessed include:

  • Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
  • Peripheral neuropathy
  • Radiculopathy
  • Motor neuron diseases
This test provides detailed insights into muscle health, helping physicians tailor effective treatment plans.

 

3. Nerve Conduction Study (NCS)

This test evaluates the speed and strength of electrical signals traveling through the nerves, offering detailed data for conditions like:

  • Pinched nerves
  • Nerve trauma
  • Neuropathies, including diabetic neuropathy
These tests deliver valuable data that help identify the root cause of nerve-related conditions.

How Do These Diagnostic Tests Work?

 

Musculoskeletal Ultrasound:

Unlike magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), this imaging method uses high-frequency sound waves to create live images of soft tissues. It’s a safe, stress-free, and risk-free procedure performed in-office by certified specialists.

Electromyography (EMG):

Thin, sterile needles are inserted into muscles to measure their electrical activity. This test is highly accurate for detecting nerve dysfunction, identifying conditions like Peripheral Neuropathy and Carpal Tunnel Syndrome.

Nerve Conduction Study (NCS):

Small electrodes placed on the skin send and record electrical impulses along the nerves. This test evaluates the strength and speed of signals, pinpointing issues like pinched nerves or trauma-induced damage.
