[Clinico-electrophysiologic studies of multiple sclerosis patients]

Clinical-electrophysiological examination of 108 patients with demyelinated diseases of the nervous system, which included electromyography, electroneuromyography and study of trunk evoked potentials, allowed the authors to identify criteria of the differential and topical diagnosis in multiple sclerosis, multiple encephalomyelitis and encephalomyelopolyradiculoneuritis. Data provided by a combined electrophysiological examination employing the above listed techniques expand our understanding of individual elements of the pathogenesis of demyelinated diseases involving the nervous system.
