Diagnostic Testing

Comprehensive diagnostic testing helps our neurological care teams identify, diagnose and treat nerve and neurological disorders at the earliest possible moment. Diagnostic services also help locate problems in the complex web of the human brain and central nervous system so our experienced physicians can recommend the most effective treatment for you. Committed to safety and service excellence, we use the following innovative technologies to perform diagnostic testing:

  • Electroencephalogram (EEG)
  • 24-Hour Ambulatory (EEG)
  • Electromyography (EMG)
  • Evoked Potentials (EP)
  • Brain Stem Evoked Potentials (BEP)
  • Visual Evoked Potentials (VEP)
  • Trans-cranial Doppler Ultrasound (TCD)
  • Arteriogram
  • Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI)
  • Magnetic Resonance Angiography (MRA)
  • Computed Tomography (CT) Scan
  • Computed Tomography Angiography (CTA)
  • Myelogram

Extending Wellmont Expertise
This level of care is not just reserved for patients in our hospitals. Bristol Regional Medical Center also serves as a receiving site for the diagnostic tests of seven hospitals in Southwest Virginia that are not part of Wellmont Health System. Our board-certified neurologists receive and interpret these results and advise colleagues and patients throughout the region, extending Wellmont Health System’s reach far beyond our local communities and raising the standard of care for a wide range of neurological disorders.
