Neurologists

• Carpal Tunnel Syndrome

Radiologist

• MRI
  The MRI machine consists of a large strong magnet and a table that moves into the opening of the scanner. During the procedure, you will be asked to lie on the table that is advanced into the scanner. The machine creates a magnetic field that causes loud noises. A radio wave antenna directs signals to the body and receives them back to create images by a computer attached to the scanner. You need to keep very still throughout the scan as movement may blur the resulting images. The entire procedure may take up to an hour to complete.
• X-Rays
• Computed Tomography
  A magnetic resonance imaging scan (MRI) is an imaging test that creates pictures of internal body structures (bones and soft tissues) with the help of magnetic fields and radio waves.The scan is often used to clarify findings from previous X-rays or CT scans, and can be combined with other imaging techniques to provide a more definitive diagnosis.

Surgeons

• Arthroscopy
  Arthroscopy is a surgical procedure that uses a narrow lighted pencil-sized instrument called an arthroscope to examine and treat the internal structures of a joint. The arthroscope is inserted through a small incision made in your skin. A camera attached to the scope relays magnified real-time images of the joint structures onto a television monitor for your surgeon to view. These images guide your surgeon throughout the procedure to diagnose abnormalities and injury, and repair and treat the joint condition.
