The nerve conduction testing involves giving small electrical stimulations to nerves in the arms and/or legs. There are two parts to the test, with the first part called nerve conduction testing and the second is known as electromyography or EMG. The test has two parts and usually takes between 45-60 minutes. ElectromyographyĮlectrodiagnostic testing or EMG is a test that evaluates nerve and muscle function.
There are two specialties that are trained in performing this valuable test are Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation ( Physiatry) and Neurology. Jerry Sobel is a board certified Physiatrist that has been performing EMGs for almost 30 years.
