Electromyography (EMG) and nerve conduction studies are procedures to study the muscles and nerves of the body. It is most often used in the diagnosis of disorders such as carpal tunnel syndrome, peripheral neuropathy, cervical and lumbosacral radiculopathy, as well as muscle disease, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, and myasthenia gravis. It is performed by both a technologist and a physician with specialized training.
