  2. Electrodiagnostic medicine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrodiagnostic_medicine

    Over time, newer techniques, such as somatosensory evoked potentials, single fiber electromyography, autonomic testing, and neuromuscular ultrasound have evolved as useful complementary techniques to nerve conduction studies and elecytromyography, which remain the core of electrodiagnostic medicine.

    Collaborators do not perform or interpret needle electromyography (EMG) studies or interpret NCSs but are active in the field of neuromuscular medicine. AANEM research members are currently active in neuromuscular or electrodiagnostic research and are a PhD investigator, engineer, holder of a master's degree, or graduate student enrolled in a ...

  4. Electromyoneurography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electromyoneurography

    A study conducted on patients with proximal radial nerve injuries used the procedure to indicate the degree of both pre- and postoperative nerve damage. [8] In this particular study, electromyoneurography was the preferred method of measuring recovery, chosen over magnetic resonance imaging and computed tomography scans. When looking at the ...

  5. Electrophysiological techniques for clinical diagnosis

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

    A few common uses are determining whether a muscle is active or inactive during movement (onset of activity), assessing the velocity of nerve conduction, and the amount of force generated during movement. EMGs are the basis for nerve conduction studies which measure the electrical conduction velocity and other characteristics of nerves in the ...

  6. Electroneuronography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electroneuronography

    Electroneuronography or electroneurography (ENoG) is a neurological non-invasive test used to study the facial nerve in cases of muscle weakness in one side of the face (Bell's palsy). The technique of electroneuronography was first used by Esslen and Fisch in 1979 to describe a technique that examines the integrity and conductivity of ...

  7. Nerve conduction study - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nerve_conduction_study

    The nerve conduction study is often combined with needle electromyography. The Department of Health and Human Services Inspector General recently identified the use of NCSs without a needle electromyography at the same time a sign of questionable billing. [9] The nerve conduction study consists of the following components:

    Among the signs/symptoms are the following (different symptoms are caused by different nerves, such as the foot drop caused by the peroneal nerve [4]): Other HNPP symptoms can include: Partial hearing loss and facial numbness (cranial nerves can be afflicted by HNPP), intolerable fatigue and pain, sensation loss and muscle weakness in the hands ...

  9. Sensory neuronopathy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sensory_neuronopathy

    Sensory neuronopathy is diagnosed clinically, based on signs and symptoms, along with nerve conduction studies. [1] Ataxia in the upper and lower extremities at onset or at full development, asymmetric distribution of sensory loss, sensory loss not being restricted to the lower limbs (as in length dependent axonal polyneuropathy) are specific ...
