How an EMG Works
EMG testing typically includes two parts:
Nerve Conduction Study (NCS):
Measures how quickly and effectively your nerves send signals.
Needle EMG:
Assesses electrical activity within muscles using a very thin electrode.
What does an EMG evaluation aim to diagnose?
Electromyography (EMG) is a diagnostic test used to evaluate how well your muscles and nerves are functioning. It helps identify the source of symptoms such as pain, numbness, tingling, or weakness.
EMG (Electromyography) testing helps diagnose nerve and muscle disorders such as:
- Carpal tunnel syndrome
- Ulnar neuropathy
- Radiculopathy (pinched nerves)
- Peripheral nerve injuries
