EMG stands for Electromyography. It is a diagnostic test that measures the electrical activity produced by muscles. During an EMG, small electrodes are inserted into the muscles being examined, and the electrical signals generated by muscle cells are recorded. This test helps assess the health of muscles and the nerves controlling them. EMG is often performed in conjunction with nerve conduction studies to provide a comprehensive evaluation of the muscular and nervous systems. It is commonly used to diagnose conditions such as muscle disorders, nerve disorders, and neuromuscular junction disorders.
