Abstract:
This article reviews the usefulness of the electrodiagnostic examination in patients who have suspected cervical and lumbosacral radiculopathy. This study can verify the presence and severity of radiculopathy, determine which levels are involved, and provide an electrodiagnostic correlate to imaging abnormalities. A practical approach for conducting the nerve conduction portion and needle electrode examination in these patients is discussed.
