What is EMG?
EMG stands for Electromyogram which means electrical analysis of muscle. It is
a technique which is combined with nerve conduction studies (NCS) to analyze
disorders of nerve and muscle. For convenience sake, many people refer to EMG
and nerve conduction studies just as EMG. Typical conditions where EMG/NCS
are used are: carpal tunnel syndrome, peripheral neuropathy, radiculopathy,
sciatica, ulnar neuropathy at the elbow, foot drop, myopathy, ALS, myasthenia
gravis, brachial plexus injuries, Guillain Barre syndrome, numbness or weakness
of unknown cause.
