Electrodiagnostic Techniques
Electrodiagnostic techniques are specialized tests that assess the function of nerves and muscles using electrical signals. By sending small electrical impulses through nerves or placing tiny electrodes on muscles, doctors can measure how well nerves conduct signals and how muscles respond. These tests help diagnose conditions like nerve injuries, carpal tunnel syndrome, or neuromuscular disorders. They provide valuable information about the health of the nervous system, guiding treatment options and helping pinpoint the cause of symptoms such as weakness, numbness, or pain.
