AB  - Clinical  electroneuromyography  includes  observing,  analyzing,  and  interpreting  the  bioelectrical  activity  of  muscles  and  nerves  as  they  respond  to  electrical  stimulation,  needle  provocation,  and  voluntary  activation.  Most  often,  the  testing  consists  of  a  combination  of  nerve  conduction  studies  (NCS)  and  electromyography  (EMG),  although  additional  tests  may  occasionally  be  appropriate.  These  may  include  somatosensory-evoked  potentials,  brain  stem  auditory-evoked  potentials,  visual-evoked  potentials,  intraoperative  monitoring,  and  repetitive  stimulation.  Of  these  additional  electrophysiological  tests,  somatosensory-evoked  potentials  and  repetitive  stimulation  are  more  commonly  accomplished  on  a  routine  basis.  However,  this  overview  focuses  on  clinical  NCS  and  EMG  studies.
