From Book News, Inc.
A reference for clinicians who perform and interpret nerve conduction studies and electromyography (EMG), and for physicians who use the results of these studies to evaluate patients with peripheral nervous system disorders. Section I covers the overall approach to the patient in the EMG lab, and reviews basic anatomy and neurophysiology, while Section II discusses fundamentals of nerve conductions, including motor, sensory, and mixed nerve studies. Section III explains technical factors and artifacts, including anomalous innervations, Section IV discusses practical details of performing common nerve conduction studies, and Section V focuses on needle EMG. Section VI, the core of the material, describes major peripheral nervous system conditions, from both the clinical and electrophysiologic points of view, and presents clinical cases and their nerve conduction and EMG data.

Electromyography and Neuromuscular Disorders: Clinical-Electrophysiologic Correlations FROM THE PUBLISHER
Here's straightforward coverage of all the information you need to understand and interpret electrodiagnostic studies. This resource emphasized clinical/neurophysiologic correlations using a practical, hands-on, interactive approach throughout. And it now includes two CDs with over 70 waveforms, so you can see and hear many of the waveforms discussed in the text.
