electromyográfia
Electromyography, often abbreviated as EMG, is a diagnostic technique used to assess the health of muscles and the nerves that control them. It involves measuring the electrical activity produced by skeletal muscles. During an EMG, small electrodes are either placed on the skin's surface (needle electrodes) or inserted directly into the muscle. These electrodes detect the electrical impulses generated when a muscle contracts and relaxes. The signals are then amplified and displayed on a monitor, allowing a healthcare professional to analyze the pattern, amplitude, and duration of the electrical activity.
The results of an EMG can help diagnose various neuromuscular disorders, such as carpal tunnel syndrome, peripheral
