Diagnostic Tests

During your treatment you may have different diagnostic tests ordered/performed to better understand the source of your pain. These tests may include:

• Diagnostic nerve blocks to identify the exact source of pain.
• MRI (magnetic resonance imaging) scans that create detailed pictures of the body’s internal structure by using a magnetic field and radio waves.
• CT or CAT (computerized axial tomography) scans that take a series of X-rays at different angles to show a detailed view of internal organs
• EMG/nerve conduction testing
• Psychological testing
• Lab testing of urine, blood, and saliva.
