Unveiling Advanced Neurological Procedures & Testing at Sharlin Health & Neurology
Welcome to Sharlin Health & Neurology in Ozark, Missouri, where cutting-edge medical insights meet state-of-the-art diagnostics. Our center is dedicated to unraveling the complexities of neurological health through a comprehensive range of advanced procedures and tests.
Precision Insights for Comprehensive Care
Our suite of neurological procedures and tests includes:
Nerve Conduction Test/Electromyography (EMG): Evaluates nerve and muscle function, aiding in the diagnosis of conditions such as neuropathy, myopathy, and neuromuscular junction disorders.
Electroencephalography (EEG): Monitors brain activity to detect abnormalities linked to conditions like epilepsy, disorders of consciousness and memory.
Nocturnal Oximetry Monitoring: Assesses overnight oxygen levels, vital for identifying those likely to be suffering from breathing disorders of sleep.
Computerized Neuropsychological Testing: Provides detailed cognitive assessment, crucial for understanding brain function in conditions such as memory loss, attention deficit disorder, and mood disorders.
Lumbar Puncture: Aids in diagnosing infections, inflammatory brain or spinal cord diseases, and peripheral nerve diseases, Alzheimer’s, Multiple Sclerosis (MS), and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS).
Heart Rate Variability assessment: Identifies imbalances between the sympathetic (“fight or flight”) and parasympathetic (“rest and digest”) nervous systems.
Skin punch Biopsy: Diagnoses Small Fiber Sensory Neuropathy and synucleinopathies (such as Parkinson’s and Lewy Body Dementia).
Advanced blood testing: Harnessing the power of newly emerging blood biomarkers for disease such as Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, MS, and ALS.
On-site and on-demand Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) with automated 3D volumetric analysis to identify changes of progressive MS and more accurately quantify brain volume loss in dementia.
Genetic testing: Blood and cheek swab, to assess disease risk in conditions such as Alzheimer’s and ALS, or to identify those who are candidates for emerging therapeutics, such as the SOD1 mutation in ALS. The assessment (and treatment of) methylation genetics is a key component of our Brain Tune Up! functional medicine program.
Functional medicine testing: Besides our proprietary Brain Tune Up! Lab panel, we order tests for a wide range of root causes, depending on your needs, which may involve assessment of stool, saliva, urine, and respiratory gases (SIBO breath testing).
