This week we are going to discuss a diagnostic test which is often ordered to differentiate between diseases of the nerve and muscle, as well as the nerve itself and the myelin sheath of the nerve. A ...
To measure each subject’s nerve conduction velocity for their study, researchers Jason DeFreitas (pictured far right) and JoCarol Shields used nerve conduction tests that stimulated the nerves in the ...
Dr. Mary-Nell Anderson is providing electromyograms and nerve conduction studies through West Feliciana Hospital. These two types of tests measure how well your muscles and the nerves that control ...
