2. Electromyography - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electromyography

   Spinal nerve injury does not cause neck, mid back pain or low back pain, and for this reason, evidence has not shown EMG or NCS to be helpful in diagnosing causes of axial lumbar pain, thoracic pain, or cervical spine pain. [10] Needle EMG may aid with the diagnosis of nerve compression or injury (such as carpal tunnel syndrome), nerve root ...

3. Nerve conduction study - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nerve_conduction_study

   F-wave study uses supramaximal stimulation of a motor nerve and recording of action potentials from a muscle supplied by the nerve. This is not a reflex, per se, in that the action potential travels from the site of the stimulating electrode in the limb to the spinal cord's ventral horn and back to the limb in the same nerve that was stimulated ...

4. Electromyoneurography - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electromyoneurography

   Various regions of muscle on the body are examined in an electromyoneurography test and the procedure lasts anywhere between 30 and 60 minutes (2–5 minutes per muscle). In addition to examining the muscles, the conduction velocity of nerve signals are measured. The nerve's ability to transmit signals is tested by inserting recording ...

5. Electrophysiological techniques for clinical diagnosis

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrophysiological...

   The compression of the median nerve within the carpal canal of the wrist and the progression of symptoms resulting from this entrapment is known as carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS). Nerve conduction studies have been used as a control electrophysiological method in the development of better CTS diagnostic techniques. [9]

6. Electrodiagnostic medicine - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrodiagnostic_medicine

   Electrodiagnostic medicine traces its origin back to a 1791 experiment by Luigi Galvani. Galvani depolarized frog leg muscles by using metal rods to make contact with the leg muscles. The development of the oscilloscope in 1897 significantly enhanced the ability of scientists to record signals from nerve and muscle. However, it was the needs of ...
