Abstract

Electromyography and nerve conduction studies are the primary electrodiagnostic studies employed in the evaluation of patients with weakness and suspected myopathy. This article discusses the physiologic principles that serve as a framework for understanding the purpose, limitations, and interpretation of these tests. In the process the authors also review the differential diagnosis of myopathy.

摘要

肌电图和神经传导研究是评估肌无力和疑似肌病患者时使用的主要电诊断研究。本文讨论了作为理解这些测试目的、局限性和解释的框架的生理原理。在这个过程中，作者还回顾了肌病的鉴别诊断。
