What is EMG?
Electromyography (EMG) is used in electrodiagnostic medicine for evaluating and recording the electrical
activity produced by skeletal muscles. EMG testing has a variety of clinical applications. EMG is used as a
diagnostics tool for identifying neuromuscular diseases and disorders of motor control. EMG signals are
sometimes used to guide botulinum toxin or phenol injections into muscles.
EMG detects the electric potential generated by muscle cells when these cells are electrically or
neurologically activated. The signals can be analyzed to detect medical abnormalities, activation level, or
recruitment order, or to analyze the biomechanics of human or animal movement.
