Treatment of Spinal Cord Diseases
A careful physical exam and a review of medical history is the first step in diagnosing a spinal cord disorder.
- X-rays to check for fractures or tumors
- Spine MRI or Spine CT scan to show areas of pressure on the spinal canal.
- Myelography to determine location and presence of abnormalities of the spinal cord.
- Electromyogram to determine the exact nerve root that is involved.
- Lumbar Canal Stenosis with Sciatica Pain.
