Electromyography (EMG) is a general term meaning, the recording of the electrical activity of nerve and muscle. EMG is a diagnostic test used to assess the function of nerves and muscles. You may be sent for an EMG test if you are experiencing numbness, tingling, weakness, or pain. The test may take from 45 minutes to 1.5 hours depending on what your doctor has ordered.
Electromyography, or EMG, measures the electrical activity of the nerves that send signals within and between muscles, called motor neurons, and shows a decrease in electrical activity if nerves are damaged, according to Mayo Clinic. Nerves communicate throughout the body with electrochemical signals.
