Neurological Diagnosis with Computer Assisted Rehabilitation Environment (C.A.R.E.N)

August 10, 2023

C.A.R.E.N (Computer Assisted Rehabilitation Environment) diagnostic abilities are appropriate for any person who has problems from a neurological or neuromuscular condition remaining after initial diagnosis and treatment.

The commonest conditions that are diagnosed and treated with the technology include head injury, stroke, multiple sclerosis, motor neuron disease, cerebral palsy and muscular dystrophy, and a wide range of rare disorders and some with undiagnosed disorders.

C.A.R.E.N can facilitates provision of individualized assessment, foundational retraining in behavior, physical functioning, communication and transfer from working in Virtual reality to daily living,

C.A.R.E.N is applicable for early diagnosis of a variety of neurological conditions. Those diagnostic protocols are useful in cases of:

  • Susceptibility and fall prevention
  • Virtual reality as an evaluation and rehabilitation tool
  • Functioning of sensorimotor integration and resolution of sensory conflicts
  • Neuromuscular control
  • Balance diagnosis and categorizations in stroke, traumatic brain injuries and other neurological motion disorders
  • Neuromuscular control
  • Kinematics of pathological motion
  • Stroke and movement disorders
  • Neuromusculoskeletal modeling

The technology is appropriate for any person who has problems from a neurological or neuromuscular condition remaining after initial diagnosis and treatment.

The commonest conditions that are diagnosed and treated with the technology include head injury, stroke, multiple sclerosis, motor neuron disease, cerebral palsy and muscular dystrophy, plus a wide range of rare disorders and some with undiagnosed disorders.

In this instance, an athlete was originally diagnosed with minor quadriceps muscle strain and was treated for four weeks, with unsatisfactory results. When he came to our clinic, the muscle was not healing, and the patients’ muscle tissue had already begun to atrophy.

Upon examination using MSUS, we discovered that he had a full muscle thickness tear that had been overlooked by his previous provider. To mitigate damage and promote healing, surgery should have been performed immediately after the injury occurred. Because of misdiagnosis and inappropriate treatment, the patient now has permanent damage that cannot be corrected.

The most important advantage of Ultrasound over MRI imaging is its ability to zero in on the symptomatic region and obtain imaging, with active participation and feedback from the patient. Using dynamic MSUS, we can see what happens when patients contract their muscles, something that cannot be done with MRI. From a diagnostic perspective, this interaction is invaluable.
