While fatigue in neck muscles has long been suspected of causing pain, the actual mechanical changes in the spine and muscles that precede weakness remain an outstanding question.

An EMG test measures the speed of transmitting electrical impulses along a nerve. Sometimes, doctors will order this test to determine whether a nerve or group of nerves is functioning properly.

An electromyography (EMG) test measures electrical activity within the muscles. Although it can be done independently, an EMG is usually performed alongside nerve conduction studies, which measure ...

A pinched nerve in your neck can be more than just painful-it can cause tingling, numbness and weakness-plus make it difficult to move your upper body. Thankfully, in most cases, a nerve can be ...

Are your muscles sore, weak, or numb? An EMG or a nerve conduction study may help you find out why. Read on to learn more about these tests.

For an electrodiagnostic study, your provider will insert a small needle into your muscles to diagnose a neuromuscular disorder. We will only test the muscles that may have problems. For more ...

After suffering from a muscular injury such as carpal tunnel or a pinched nerve, your doctor might call for an electromyogram (EMG). The test uses needles and small shocks to test the signaling of ...

The Super Swede EMG is the most recent addition to the line and represents a modern take on the range's more vintage-inspired models, most notably through the addition of active pickups and a kill ...

The ground screw was also used as a reference electrode for differential EMG recording, with two active EMG electrodes implanted bilaterally in deep neck muscle.

An electromyography (EMG) test measures electrical activity within the muscles. Although it can be done independently, an EMG is usually performed alongside nerve conduction studies, which measure ...
