EMG+NCV for lower limbs is a combination of Electromyography and Nerve Conduction Velocity tests for lower limbs. EMG test along with NCV is performed to measure nerve activity of the muscles and nerves of the legs. The EMG test measures the muscle response to electrical stimulation and the NCV test measures the rate of conduction of nerve impulses of the lower limbs.

Why is EMG+NCV for Lower Limbs Done?

Doctors recommend EMG+NCV for lower limbs to the patients to measure the speed of conduction of nerve impulses of the lower limbs, the electrical conductivity of the muscles of the lower limbs, The origin of muscular or neurological dysfunctions and to diagnose the conditions with any suspected damage to muscles or nerves.

Doctors also recommend this test if patients are having the symptoms such as numbness, tingling, or burning sensations in the lower limbs.

Frequently Asked Questions
FAQ

EMG+NCV for lower limbs is a combined approach of diagnostic modality that uses both nerve conduction velocity and Electromyography tests for lower limbs.The EMG test helps in measuring the muscle responses towards the electrical stimulation whereas the NCV test helps in the measurement of the conduction rate of nerve impulses in the lower limbs.

EMG+NCV as a diagnostic test for the lower limbs help to measure the nerve impulse speed of conduction in the lower limbs, lower limb’s electrical conductivity in muscles, and to determine the neurological dysfunction and the muscular dysfunctions that helps to diagnose certain suspected conditions and damages to the nerves and muscles. The symptoms including tingling, numbness, or burning sensations are also diagnosed for reasons via this test.

EMG and NCV tests are often used together to appreciate the differences in a muscle disorder and a nerve disorder. NCV test helps to detect a nerve-related problem, whereas an EMG test is helpful in the detection of muscular disorders and response toward the nervous stimuli thereby helping in diagnosis.

The test can cause nearly negligible amounts of discomfort due to electric shock, although almost all of the procedures can be conducted without the need to administer any pain medication.

Yes the test is generally painless, relatively quick and safe procedure. The electrical impulses used for the scan are conducted in a safe manner that dont pose any harm or hazards.

The peripheral neuropathy can be determined using needle electromyography (EMG) and nerve conduction studies (NCS). The tests can reveal the potential causes of peripheral neuropathy.

Certain factors are there that can interfere with the results formation of NCV tests that might include 

  • Spinal cord damage, 
  • Intolerable pain before the test
  • Increased body temperature. 

You should inform your healthcare provider about any implanted medically relevant devices such as a cardiac defibrillator or cardiac pacemaker. In these cases, certain precautions might be needed to be taken.
