What is the Procedure of an EMG:

Electromyography (EMG) is a diagnostic technique for assessing the health of muscles and the nerve cells that govern them. Motor neurons are the name for these nerve cells. They send electrical impulses to muscles, causing them to contract and relax. These impulses...

5 Different Types of EEG Tests

An electroencephalogram (EEG) is a device that measures brain activity. Your brain sends out small electrical impulses all the time. Small sensors called electrodes are put on your scalp during an EEG test. An EEG machine is linked to the electrodes via cables. A...
