About the offer

Syringomyelia is a rare disorder characterized by a fluid-filled cavity or cyst within the spinal cord. Diagnosis typically involves a combination of imaging tests, such as MRI scans, physical examinations, and neurological testing. Imaging tests can show the presence of a fluid-filled cavity or cyst within the spinal cord, a hallmark of a syrinx of the spinal cord. Lab tests include a complete blood count (CBC) to measure the number of blood cells and platelets in the blood. Biochemical analysis of blood measures levels of substances such as kidney and liver function tests, electrolytes, and lipid panels in the blood to rule out other potential causes of symptoms. Inflammation blood tests indicate the levels of specific markers in the blood that indicate inflammation, which may be present in certain conditions that can cause symptoms similar to those of syringomyelia. A neurological examination and an MRI spine scan are also done to confirm the diagnosis. The duration of the outpatient diagnostic process is a few days. Early diagnosis can help to improve long-term outcomes. Timely diagnoses help to get earlier treatment, reduce the risk of complications, and improve the quality of life. Appropriate treatment can be prescribed to manage symptoms and prevent further damage to the spinal cord.
