CMAP

CMAP, or Corticomuscular Active Potentials, refers to the electrical signals that are generated when the brain’s motor cortex sends commands to muscles. By analyzing these signals, clinicians and researchers can assess the communication between the brain and muscles, which is important for understanding motor control, diagnosing neurological conditions, and guiding rehabilitation. Essentially, CMAP provides insights into how well the brain is coordinating muscle activity, helping identify issues with nerve or muscle function in a non-invasive way.
