EMG
Laboratory is a state-of-the-art facility that specializes in sophisticated
electrodiagnostic testing of the nerves and muscles. Our goal is to provide
the highest level of patient care and diagnostic support for our referring
physicians. Electromyography
(EMG) and nerve conduction tests are performed in order to evaluate
the condition of nerves and muscles. These tests make use of highly-sophisticated
computerized equipment, which allow calculations of the rate at which
nerves conduct electrical impulses. In addition, they assess whether or
not muscles may have had some interruption in their nerve supply, or if
there is any damage to the muscles. This test provides information about
a variety of disorders including injured nerve roots, damaged nerve and
muscle disorders. The detailed information gathered, and comprehensive
analysis that follows, is critical to thoroughly understanding the neuromuscular
condition, which in turn assists in selecting the most effective treatment
plan.
