Electrodiagnosis of subclinical diabetic neuropathies by nerve conduction studies remains challenging. The question arises about which nerves should be tested and what the best electrodiagnostic protocol to make an early diagnosis of diabetic neuropathies would be. On the basis of our findings and other evidence, which highlighted the remarkable prevalence of electrophysiological abnormalities ...

Background: F-wave study, part of electrodiagnostic study, has had a controversial sensitivity in the diagnosis of lumbosacral radiculopathy. Objectives: We aimed to compare F wave parameters obtained from the tibial nerve of both extremities in patients with unilateral S1 radiculopathy. Materials and Methods: The study was done from March to September 2015 in the Electrodiagnostic laborator...

Electromyography (EMG) and nerve conduction studies (NCS) are not only tests to be performed in isolation and reported without consideration of the clinical context, but rather form part of what has been referred to as the electrodiagnostic consultation. Using all of the pertinent information available to the electromyographer performing the test, the electrodiagnostic consultation strives towa...
