During this test, you will be lying on an examination table, next to an EMG machine (which looks like a desktop or laptop computer). The test consists of two parts, though at times one may be done without the other. The first part is called Nerve Conduction Studies. In this part some...
The main difference between an EEG and an EMG is what they test. While they are both used to test the electrical activity or impulses going on inside a patient’s body, each test is used for a different part of the body. An EEG is used to test electrical activity in a patient’s br...
An EEG is a test that detects the brain's electrical activity. Used to evaluate head injuries or neurological disorders, an EEG...
An electromyography (EMG) is a test that checks for damage to the nerves that control your muscles.How is a CDH treated?Your healthcare provider may have you rest in bed for a few days. You may also need any of the following:NSAID...

To perform an EMG test, an external electrode sends electrical impulses to the affected muscle. Another electrode, in the form of a small needle, is then inserted in the muscle to record the neurological response. The response is appraised at different levels of muscle contraction in order to ...
An electromyography (EMG) test measures the electrical activity of your muscles at rest and with movement. Nerve conduction tests check how surface nerves and related muscles respond to stimulation. Electrodes with wires or tiny needles are placed on certain areas, such as the buttocks and legs.Ho...
What do nerve conduction velocity test results mean? The purpose of the nerve conduction study is to determine whether a patient’s complaint or physical finding might be caused by abnormal nerve or muscle function. If there is an abnormal nerve conduction study, it may help make the diagnosis...
Optimal loading involves the prescription of an exercise stimulus that promotes positive tissue adaptation, restoring function in patients undergoing rehabilitation and improving performance in healthy athletes. Implicit in optimal loading is the need to monitor the response to load, but what constitutes a...
I am diagnosed as a Musk Myasthenia patient. I had an attack in July 2006 and had to undergo plasmapheresis. I have been taking Cellcept for more than three years. I was told my thymus gland is OK. What is the cause of this disease and how long will I have to take this medicine?
