Diagnostic Through Electromyography
Weakness in the limbs, loss of sensitivity, or even paralysis of a limb (in some cases after an accident), an EMG test may be requested by the doctor.
​
It allows the study of the peripheral nervous system of muscles and neuromuscular junctions. Just like the Echodoppler, it is a non-traumatic and painless examination, in the worst case scenario, it is a little bit unpleasant during the injection of implants into the muscle by the examiner.
With EMG, you are provided with a plot of the electrical activity that is associated with the muscle, whether it is at rest, during activity or during galvanic stimulations as part of a neurological examination.
​
The plot obtained, known as the EMG or Electromyogram, reveals the location of the injury responsible for your complaints..
​
It is therefore an injury at the level of the myelin axon or the neuromuscular junction (Myasthenia gravis)
