Advanced Cases in Electromyography

This textbook offers a practical, case-based approach to electromyography (EMG) interpretation, particularly useful for early-career neurologists and physiatrists stepping into clinical practice. While traditional resources on this subject delve deeply into the physics and pathophysiology of electrodiagnostic testing, this book teaches readers to confidently analyze and report on complex, real-world cases. Through a curated collection of challenging scenarios, the text guides readers beyond routine findings, helping them navigate ambiguity, refine clinical reasoning, and build diagnostic confidence. Each case is structured to mirror everyday clinical workflows, beginning with the rationale for testing and progressing through data interpretation to the formulation of a clear, clinically relevant report. Real EMG and nerve conduction study (NCS) outputs anchor the learning experience. By emphasizing applied knowledge and decision-making, this book empowers practitioners to bridge theory and practice, strengthen their interpretive skills, and deliver high-quality patient care from the outset of their careers.
