Electromyography (EMG) detects abnormalities in the body by recording electrical impulses created by muscle activity. There are two types of EMG machines: surface and intramuscular. EMG tests record activity both when muscles are at rest and when contracted, and can help diagnose muscle or neurological disorders. Electromyography (EMG) helps detect possible abnormalities in the human […]
An EEG measures electrical activity in the brain, while an EMG measures electrical impulses in muscles. EEGs use electrodes on the scalp, while EMGs use needles in the muscles. They are performed by different specialists and take different amounts of time. Both an EEG and electromyogram (or EEG and EMG) are used to measure electrical […]
