Neuromuscular
The Neuromuscular Center at St. Elizabeth’s is one of the largest and most effective centers in New England providing the latest treatments for patients suffering from nerve and muscle disease.
Our team of expert physicians diagnose and treat the following conditions:
- Spinal cord disorders
- ALS
- Nerve plexus injuries
- Nerve root problems
- Neuropathies
- Myasthenia gravis
- Muscle disorder
To help with diagnosis, St. Elizabeth’s team is highly skilled at performing and evaluating the full range of standard tests and advanced studies available only in a limited number of other Boston-area hospitals.
Tests available in our neurophysiology lab include:
- EEG (electroencephalogram), used predominately for diagnosing seizure disorders
- EMG (electromyography), assesses the health of the muscles and the nerves that control them
- EP (evoked potential), evaluates sensory nerve signals through the eye, spinal cord and brain and used primarily in diagnosing multiple sclerosis
