Our Services — NCV Studies & MSK Ultrasound | Accurate Medical Diagnostics

Service One

Nerve Conduction Velocity (NCV / NCS) Studies

Nerve conduction studies evaluate how effectively electrical signals travel through peripheral nerves. By placing small surface electrodes on the skin and applying mild electrical stimuli, our certified technologists measure the speed and strength of nerve signals — revealing dysfunction that cannot be seen on X-ray or MRI.

NCV/NCS testing provides objective, quantifiable data that enables providers to confirm or rule out nerve pathology, determine the severity and location of damage, and guide treatment decisions with confidence.

Painless or minimal discomfort — patients describe mild tingling similar to static electricity

Detects nerve damage early, before permanent damage occurs

Guides precise treatment decisions and appropriate referrals

CPT 95913 and related codes — billing guidance included

NCV / NCS

Conditions We Help Diagnose

NCV studies are the gold standard for diagnosing peripheral nerve dysfunction across a wide range of conditions.

Carpal Tunnel Syndrome

Identifies median nerve compression at the wrist with objective severity grading.

Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathy

Detects and grades nerve damage from diabetes — critical for early intervention.

Radiculopathy

Differentiates nerve root compression from other causes of radiating pain.

Ulnar Neuropathy

Pinpoints cubital tunnel or Guyon's canal compression with precision.

Brachial Plexopathy

Evaluates complex nerve network injuries affecting the arm and shoulder.

Nerve Entrapment Syndromes

Identifies and grades compression sites across the entire peripheral nervous system.

Service Two

Musculoskeletal (MSK) Ultrasound Imaging

Musculoskeletal ultrasound uses high-frequency sound waves to generate real-time images of muscles, tendons, ligaments, joints, and soft tissue structures. Unlike static imaging, it allows providers to visualize structures in motion — a critical advantage for accurately diagnosing soft tissue pathology.

MSK ultrasound is non-invasive, completely radiation-free, and can be performed directly in your facility by our trained technologists — with no scheduling delays, no patient transport, and no capital investment on your part.

No radiation — safe for all patient populations

Dynamic, real-time imaging — see structures move during the exam

Performed in your office — no hospital or imaging center required

Excellent complement to X-ray and MRI for comprehensive assessment

MSK Ultrasound

Musculoskeletal Conditions We Assess

Tendon Injuries & Tears

Visualize partial and full-thickness tears in rotator cuff, Achilles, patellar, and other tendons.

Ligament Sprains

Grade ligament injuries with precision — differentiate strains from partial or complete tears.

Joint Inflammation

Detect effusions, synovitis, and inflammatory changes in real time with ultrasound guidance.

Soft Tissue Masses

Characterize cysts, lipomas, and other soft tissue abnormalities without radiation exposure.

Muscle Strains

Assess muscle fiber disruption and hematoma formation following acute injury.

Dynamic Nerve Evaluation

Assess nerve mobility and compression dynamically — catches what static imaging misses.

Billing Support

We Make Reimbursement Simple

Every AMD service includes CPT coding guidance so your practice can bill confidently and capture appropriate reimbursement.

CPT Code Guidance

We provide CPT coding support for all studies performed, including CPT 95913 for nerve conduction studies. Our reports are structured to support accurate coding.

Detailed Clinical Reports

Every study generates a comprehensive clinical report delivered promptly to the referring provider — formatted for direct integration into clinical decision-making and documentation.

Revenue Retention

By performing diagnostics in-house, your practice captures revenue that would otherwise be lost to external referrals — while also improving patient retention and satisfaction.

FAQ

Common Questions About Our Services

Most patients describe a mild tingling or brief sensation similar to static electricity. The procedure is well-tolerated and non-invasive. Testing typically takes 20–60 minutes depending on the study ordered.

Patients should avoid applying lotions, oils, or creams to the skin in the testing areas. They should wear comfortable, loose-fitting clothing that allows easy access to arms and legs. No special dietary restrictions are required.

Detailed clinical reports are delivered promptly after testing — typically within a timeframe that supports your clinical workflow and decision-making without delays.

Our technologists arrive fully equipped with all necessary diagnostic equipment. Your practice needs to provide only a standard exam room. There is no capital investment, storage, or maintenance required on your part.

Yes. AMD offers flexible scheduling — both recurring visits on a regular cadence and on-demand appointments based on patient volume. We work around your schedule, not the other way around.
