Neuromuscular Studies
Neuromuscular studies focus on understanding the interactions between the nervous system and muscles. These studies examine how signals from the brain and spinal cord control muscle movements, helping to identify any dysfunctions or disorders that may affect mobility and strength.
Researchers use various techniques, such as electromyography (EMG) and nerve conduction studies, to measure electrical activity in muscles and the speed of nerve signals. This information is crucial for diagnosing conditions like muscular dystrophy or neuropathy and for developing effective treatment plans to improve patient outcomes.
