ALS and Neuromuscular Disease Center

The ALS and Neuromuscular Disease Center at Oregon Health & Science University provides diagnosis and treatment for people with muscle and peripheral nerve disorders (disorders of the nerves away from the brain and spinal cord).
As part of the OHSU Brain Institute, we bring together experts from all areas of medicine at OHSU for your neuromuscular therapy and ALS treatment.
Neuromuscular disorders we treat:
- Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), also called Lou Gehrig's disease
- Myasthenia gravis (MG) and Lambert-Eaton myasthenic syndrome (LEMS)
- Myotonic dystrophy
- Facioscapulohumeral dystrophy (FSHD)
- Inflammatory myopathies such as polymyositis, dermatomyositis and inclusion body myositis
- Mitochondrial myopathies
- Metabolic myopathies such as Pompe, Debrancher and McArdle's diseases
- Hereditary neuropathy, also called Charcot-Marie-Tooth disorder
- Acquired neuropathies (Guillain-Barré syndrome, chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy and diabetic, metabolic, toxic, painful peripheral and other neuropathies)
- Muscular dystrophies (Duchenne, Becker, limb-girdle, myotonic and oculopharyngeal)
