Other Diagnostic Studies

• Electromyography
• Nerve conduction studies (NCS)
• Somatosensory evoked potentials (SSEP)
• Diagnostics injections are used to identify the source of pain. This process uses an anesthetic agent, complete pain relief after the injection identifies the source of the pain and partial pain relief means an additional source is causing the pain.
