  • Infections of the nervous system, such as encephalitis, meningitis, and HIV

Diagnostic Procedures

Several physicians in our group have extensive training and experience in electrodiagnostic procedures including EMG/nerve conduction studies, EEG (electroencephalography), and evoked potential studies that can be used to help diagnose a neurological condition.

Botox (Botulinum toxin) treatment

Several physicians at BASS have expertise in botulinum toxin injections for the treatment of dystonia, spasticity, hemifacial spasm, blepharospasm, and headaches.

Neurologists perform a range of different tests and procedures to diagnose and treat neurological conditions.

Some of these procedures include:

  • Lumbar puncture
  • Electromyography
  • Electroencephalogram
  • Tensilon test

A neurologist can use the following tests to help diagnose neurological disorders:

  • Laboratory tests, such as blood and urine analyses
  • Imaging tests, such as ultrasounds and MRI, CT, and PET scans
