Nerve Conduction Studies (NCS)

Nerve Conduction Studies (NCS) are tests used to assess the function of your nerves. During the procedure, small electrodes are placed on your skin over the nerves. A small electrical impulse is sent through the nerve, and the speed and strength of the response is measured. This helps doctors identify issues such as nerve damage or dysfunction, often related to conditions like carpal tunnel syndrome or neuropathy. NCS is a safe, non-invasive test that provides valuable information about your nervous system's health.
