Advances in electrodiagnosis in Zimbabwe. Part I: Peripheral nerve conduction studies and electromyography.
This paper reviews the two electrodiagnostic techniques--nerve conduction measurements and electromyography. A brief description of each technique is given followed by their clinical applications. Finally the types of abnormalities observed are discussed and where possible, illustrated.
