Electromyogram in Palatine (EMG)

An electromyogram (EMG) is a diagnostic study that has been used by health care providers for over 50 years. An EMG examination is typically ordered by a physician to evaluate for muscle or nerve damage as part of a medical work-up. Electromyograms measure the electrical impulses of muscles at rest and during contraction. Measuring the electrical activity in muscles and nerves can help detect the presence, location, and extent of diseases that can damage muscle tissue. An EMG is most often performed when people have symptoms of muscle weakness.
