Labs/Diagnostic Testing
Diagnostic testing includes a variety of procedures and tests that help the caring medical team determine the underlying cause of your symptoms. These tests provide valuable information that can detect, confirm, or rule out medical conditions.
EMG-Electrocardiogram
Electromyography (EMG) is a diagnostic procedure to assess the health of muscles and the nerve cells that control them (motor neurons). EMG results can reveal nerve dysfunction, muscle dysfunction or problems with nerve-to-muscle signal transmission.
EKG-Electrocardiogram
An electrocardiogram records the electrical signals in your heart. It’s a common and painless test used to quickly detect heart problems and monitor your heart’s health.
Electrocardiograms — also called ECGs or EKGs — are often done in a doctor’s office, a clinic or a hospital room. ECG machines are standard equipment in operating rooms and ambulances.
