NCV Upper Limb (Left Side) Price in Bangladesh

What is NCV Upper Limb (Left Side)?

Nerve Conduction Velocity (NCV) is a diagnostic test that measures the speed and strength of electrical signals traveling through a nerve. It helps evaluate nerve function and diagnose conditions like neuropathy, carpal tunnel syndrome, and other nerve-related disorders.

During the test, electrodes are placed on the skin over the nerve, and small electrical impulses are delivered. The electrodes measure the time it takes for the electrical signal to travel, helping assess nerve health.

NCV is typically safe with minimal risks, such as mild discomfort from the electrical stimulation. Results are compared to normal values for the specific nerve being tested.

What to expect & how to prepare

NCV Upper Limb (Left Side) is performed at a diagnostic centre or hospital lab. A trained technician collects the required sample (commonly a blood draw, urine sample, swab or an imaging scan, depending on the test) and sends it to the lab for analysis. Most routine tests take only a few minutes to sample, with reports typically ready the same day or within 24–48 hours.

• Fasting: some tests require 8–12 hours of fasting (water is usually allowed). Ask the centre when you book.
• Medication: tell the lab about any medicines or supplements you take, as some can affect results.
• Timing: certain hormone and biochemistry tests are best done in the morning — confirm the recommended time.
• Report: always have a registered doctor interpret your NCV Upper Limb (Left Side) result rather than self-diagnosing.
