Diagnostics Lumbar Puncture: A lumbar puncture is similar to an epidural given to a woman during childbirth, but instead of administering anesthesia, a small sample of cerebrospinal fluid is collected and sent to the lab for testing. We recommend this be done by a radiologist who will use x-ray imaging to guide the needle placement. Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT): This device takes a picture of your retina, allowing us to measure retinal thickness, which can help your doctor monitor MS. MRI: Generates a picture of your brain and spinal cord, allowing us to see MS lesions.
