Electrocardiography
Electromyography
Electronystagmography
Electroencephalography
Electroneurography
Electroretinography
A. An electrophysiological study that measures the electrical activity of the retina as it responds to a flash of light. It diagnoses a variety of retinal disorders (retinal detachment; retinitis; retinal damage caused by drugs). It evaluates colour blindness and night blindness. Detects congenital abnormalities of the corneal lens.
B. An electrophysiological study performed to determine nerve conduction velocity found in peripheral nerve disease or injury. The test provides diagnostic information about the location and cause of peripheral nerve abnormalities. Nerve conduction velocities are slowed in diseases that affect peripheral nerves. Both electromyography and electroneurography use electrodes on the skin and electrical stimuli are recorded to peripheral nerve and muscle contraction responses.
C. An electrophysiological study performed to determine the electrical activity of specific muscles. A variety of nerve and muscle disorders can be diagnosed (muscular dystrophy; myasthenia gravis; poliomyelitis; tetanus; sarcoidosis. Diagnoses neuromuscular and muscular disorders. Evaluates neuropathies and myopathies.
D. An electrophysiological study that measures the direction and degree of nystagmus (involuntary movement of the eye in a back and forth direction). It measures the electric responses of the eye at rest and in response to various stimuli that are applied to the eye to elicit the nystagmus response. Speed and duration of the eye movements are recorded and compared with normal values.
E. A non-invasive test of the electrical output of the heart. Electrodes are attached at strategic areas of the patient’s body-to allow a 360 degree evaluation of the heart’s electrical output.
F. A non-invasive study performed to evaluate the electrical activity of the brain cells. It assists in diagnosing structural abnormalities involving the brain. Seizure activity can be evaluated. Evaluates sleep disorders (during sleep studies) and effects of drug toxicity on the brain and more.
