What Does EMG Stand For?
EMG stands for Electromyogram
EMG, or Electromyogram, is a diagnostic procedure that measures the electrical activity of muscles at rest and during contraction. It involves the use of electrodes placed on the skin or inserted into muscles to detect electrical signals, which helps in evaluating muscle function and diagnosing neuromuscular disorders. EMG provides valuable insights into muscle health, nerve function, and the presence of conditions such as muscle atrophy, neuropathy, and other neuromuscular diseases.
