Diagnostic Testing
Advanced imaging and diagnostic technology for fast, accurate diagnoses and personalized treatment plans.
At Long Island Orthopedic Solutions, we utilize state-of-the-art diagnostic equipment and proven medical techniques to accurately identify the source of pain, injury, or dysfunction. Our experienced providers use advanced testing methods to develop precise treatment plans that help patients recover quickly and safely.
Electromyograms (EMG)
Electromyography evaluates the electrical activity of muscles and nerves. An EMG helps diagnose conditions involving muscle inflammation, pinched nerves, herniated discs, peripheral nerve injuries, and other neuromuscular disorders by detecting abnormal electrical signals within the muscles.
Nerve Conduction Studies
Nerve conduction studies measure how quickly electrical impulses travel through motor and sensory nerves. These tests are commonly used to evaluate numbness, tingling, weakness, burning sensations, carpal tunnel syndrome, peripheral neuropathy, and spinal nerve compression.
Digital X-Ray & MRI
Digital X-ray imaging provides detailed views of bones, joints, and fractures, while Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) offers exceptional visualization of muscles, ligaments, tendons, discs, cartilage, and other soft tissues. Together, these imaging technologies allow our physicians to make accurate diagnoses and recommend the most effective treatment options.
Both Long Island Orthopedic Solutions offices feature convenient on-site radiology services, helping eliminate unnecessary delays in diagnosis and care.
Musculoskeletal Ultrasound
Musculoskeletal ultrasound uses high-frequency sound waves to produce real-time images of muscles, tendons, ligaments, joints, and soft tissue structures. It is an excellent tool for evaluating injuries while also guiding injections and other procedures with outstanding precision.
Our providers perform in-office ultrasound examinations, allowing patients to receive faster diagnoses without outside referrals. This advanced technology improves efficiency, enhances patient convenience, and helps begin treatment sooner.
