EMG/NCV testing assesses the health of your muscles and nerves.
EMG (Electromyography) and NCV (Nerve Conduction Velocity) testing are diagnostic tools that assess the health of your muscles and nerves. EMG measures the electrical activity in muscles, while NCV tests how well electrical signals travel along your nerves. Together, these tests help doctors diagnose conditions like nerve damage, carpal tunnel syndrome, peripheral neuropathy, and muscle disorders.
For doctors, EMG/NCV testing provides critical insights into the source of pain, weakness, or numbness, enabling accurate diagnosis and treatment. For patients, it helps pinpoint nerve and muscle issues that may be affecting your daily life, guiding a targeted and effective treatment plan.
If you’re dealing with unexplained pain, numbness, or weakness, EMG/NCV testing can help uncover the cause and provide clarity for your treatment. Make an appointment at our clinic if you are located in Lake Charles, Louisiana or the surrounding area.
