  • Imaging tests including X-ray, ultrasound, CT scan or MRI
  • Bone density test (DEXA scan)
  • Tissue biopsy
  • Electromyogram (EMG)
  • Organ function tests

Advanced Treatment

Rheumatology Treatment
Treatments for conditions vary depending on symptoms and the specific diagnosis. A personalized treatment plan is developed for each individual. Types of treatment may include:
  • Pain medication
  • Corticosteroids
  • Anti-inflammatory medication
  • Immunosuppressant medication
  • Disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDS)
  • Joint Injections
  • Physical Therapy

Some medications and treatments may be administered by infusion (IV) therapy or injections.

If treatments are not effective for certain conditions and severe symptoms, patients may be referred to an orthopedic surgeon for evaluation and surgical consideration.
