À propos de ce contenu audio
In this episode of the New York Pain Medicine Podcast, we delve into the use of EMG and nerve conduction studies for diagnosing pain and nerve issues. Host and pain management specialist Dr. Douglas Allen explains the roles of these diagnostic tools, which measure signal speed in nerves and electrical activity in muscles. The episode highlights scenarios when these tests are particularly useful, especially when other diagnostic methods, like MRIs, provide inconclusive results. Dr. Allen also emphasizes how these tests guide effective treatment plans and avoid unnecessary procedures. Listeners are encouraged to consider a consultation if they experience persistent nerve symptoms.
