Led by Dr. Sudanagunta Venkatesh, a highly skilled Consultant Neurologist, our EMG services help diagnose various neuromuscular disorders with precision, ensuring accurate treatment and effective management.
What is EMG (Electromyography)?
EMG is a specialized test that records the electrical activity of muscles to determine how well nerves communicate with them. It helps in diagnosing nerve and muscle disorders, guiding treatment plans for neurological and musculoskeletal conditions.
Conditions Diagnosed with EMG
- Neuropathy – Nerve damage due to diabetes, infections, or autoimmune diseases.
- Radiculopathy – Nerve root compression in the spine causing pain, tingling, or weakness.
- Myopathy – Muscle disorders leading to weakness and degeneration.
- Motor Neuron Diseases (MND) – Conditions like ALS affecting muscle function.
- Carpal Tunnel Syndrome – Nerve compression causing pain and numbness in the hands.
- Guillain-Barré Syndrome – An autoimmune disorder affecting nerve function.
- Muscle Weakness & Cramps – Evaluating unexplained muscle fatigue or spasms.
- Nerve Injuries – Identifying damage due to trauma or compression.
How is an EMG Test Performed?
- Electrode Placement – Small needles are inserted into specific muscles.
- Recording Muscle Activity – Electrical signals are monitored while muscles contract and relax.
- Data Analysis & Diagnosis – Dr. Sudanagunta Venkatesh interprets the results to assess nerve and muscle function.
