The electromyographic assessment of the flexor carpi radialis muscle (FCRM) in the context of an upper limb extensors' deficiency helps physicians in differentiating radial nerve damage from C7 radicular impairment. Ultrasound (US)-guided electromyography (EMG) is mandatory to locate this muscle, particularly in the case of muscle atrophy, denervation, and neuromuscular disorders. The aim of this manuscript is to illustrate the anatomical specific features of the FCRM and the technical procedure of FCRM EMG with US guidance.
在上肢伸肌功能不足的情况下,对桡侧腕屈肌(FCRM)进行肌电图评估有助于医生区分桡神经损伤和C7神经根损伤。超声(US)引导下的肌电图(EMG)对于定位该肌肉是必不可少的,尤其是在肌肉萎缩、失神经支配和神经肌肉疾病的情况下。本文的目的是阐述桡侧腕屈肌的解剖学特征以及超声引导下桡侧腕屈肌肌电图的技术操作过程。
