A nerve conduction velocity (NCV) test is used to assess nerve damage and dysfunction. Here’s why you would need one, how it works, and what happens next.

What meaning does decreased nerve conduction amplitude have in light of normal conduction velocity and normal muscle testing on EMG?

A nerve conduction velocity test measures how fast the nerves in the body send important signals. If they are too slow, this may indicate nerve damage and one of several underlying medical ...

For more information on nerve conduction velocity testing and EMG testing, do not hesitate to contact the clinic. Thank you.

A novel gene that controls nerve conduction velocity has been identified in a new study. Investigators report that even minor reductions in conduction velocity may aggravate disease in multiple ...

Nerve conduction studies allow non-invasive analysis of nerve physiology and function. They are used for suspected conditions of nerve entrapment, radiculopathy, or plexopathy. That is, they help ...

A nerve conduction velocity test is performed and it is determined that the nerve conduction speed is decreased across the elbow in the specific nerve to those two fingers.

Dapagliflozin plus methylcobalamin improved nerve function and glucose control in diabetic neuropathy.

High glucose variability in children and young adults with type 1 diabetes (T1D) strongly predicted slowed nerve conduction velocity, a forerunner of diabetic peripheral neuropathy, in a recent study.

Motor impairments of the lower leg were measured using compound motor action potential (CMAP) amplitude and nerve conduction velocity.

One type of NCS includes the nerve conduction velocity test, which helps to determine if the nerve has been damaged or destroyed. During this test, surface patch electrodes are attached to the skin.
