You may have had a number
of tests, x rays and mri scans done. Your neurosurgeon
can only help you if he/she has the information at the
time of the visit. Please be sure to bring any
testing you have had done, generally within the last
two years, to the office:
- x rays and reports
- CT scans and reports
- myelograms and reports
- MRI scans and reports
- EMG/NCV reports
- bone scans
- any old operative reports
|
It is difficult to stress how important
it is that you bring all these studies and reports to your
first office visit. If you don't have these, your neurosurgeon
cannot give you a complete and objective opinion as to what
he can do to help you. The office staff can try to get
the studies, but if this is done while you are waiting, it
will delay your office visit and those of the patients following
you.
