Nerve & Muscle Diagnostics

EMG (Electromyography) measures electrical activity in muscles to diagnose neuromuscular disorders, while nerve conduction studies assess nerve function and detect nerve damage. These tests are essential for diagnosing conditions like carpal tunnel syndrome, neuropathy, and muscle disorders.

Evoked Potentials test how the brain and spinal cord respond to stimuli, helping diagnose conditions affecting the visual, auditory, and sensory pathways. Our advanced digital EMG/NCS systems provide precise measurements for accurate diagnosis.

Our experienced neurophysiologists use gentle testing techniques to minimize discomfort while ensuring comprehensive neuromuscular evaluation. We coordinate closely with neurologists to provide integrated care for our patients.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about EMG/EP testing.

EMG involves inserting a thin needle electrode into muscles, which may cause mild discomfort similar to an injection. The discomfort is brief and tolerable. Nerve conduction studies use surface electrodes and are generally painless.

The complete EMG/NCS testing typically takes 30-90 minutes depending on how many nerves and muscles need to be tested. Evoked potential tests usually take 30-60 minutes each.

Yes, you can drive and resume normal activities immediately after EMG/EP testing. There are no restrictions following the procedure.

Consult your doctor before the test. Some medications like blood thinners or muscle relaxants may need adjustment. Bring a list of all your medications to the appointment.

EMG/EP can diagnose carpal tunnel syndrome, peripheral neuropathy, radiculopathy, myasthenia gravis, ALS, muscular dystrophy, and other neuromuscular disorders affecting nerves and muscles.

Yes, EMG/EP testing is very safe with minimal risks. There may be slight bruising or soreness at needle insertion sites, which resolves quickly. The test is performed by trained neurophysiologists.
