Electromyography (EMG) and Nerve Conduction (NC) Study are advanced electrodiagnostic tests used to evaluate the health of muscles and the nerves that control them. These tests help diagnose a wide range of neuromuscular disorders by identifying nerve damage, muscle dysfunction, or problems affecting the communication between nerves and muscles. They play a vital role in determining the exact cause of symptoms such as numbness, tingling, weakness, pain, or muscle cramps.

When is EMG & NC Study Recommended?

Your doctor may recommend these tests if you experience persistent symptoms suggestive of nerve or muscle disorders.

• Numbness, tingling, or burning sensation in the hands or feet
• Muscle weakness, cramps, or unexplained muscle wasting
• Neck pain or back pain radiating to the arms or legs
• Suspected nerve injuries, neuropathy, or radiculopathy
• Evaluation of conditions like carpal tunnel syndrome, sciatica, and myopathy

Conditions Diagnosed

EMG & NC Study helps diagnose and assess the severity of various neurological and muscular conditions.

• Peripheral Neuropathy
• Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
• Cervical and Lumbar Radiculopathy
• Sciatica and Nerve Compression Disorders
• Muscular Disorders and Myopathies
• Motor Neuron Diseases

Benefits of EMG & NC Study

• Provides accurate diagnosis of nerve and muscle disorders
• Helps identify the location and severity of nerve damage
• Guides treatment planning and rehabilitation
• Monitors disease progression and recovery after treatment
• Safe, reliable, and minimally invasive diagnostic procedure
