F wave. In neuroscience, an F wave is the second of two voltage changes observed after electrical stimulation is applied to the skin surface above the distal region of a nerve. F waves are often used to measure nerve conduction velocity, and are particularly useful for evaluating conduction problems in the proximal region of nerves (i.e., portions of nerves near the spinal cord).
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.
