A member asked:
I want to get ncv done on back of the neck and spine-shoulder region.which nerves should i get tested.?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Nerve testing: Recently minimally trained professionals have been offering NCVs for diagnostic purposes. This has been confusing for the public that may not be aware of extensive training by neurologists and PMR doctors in our training programs. Be sure your provider is trained as interpretation is important. Cervical 4 thru thoracic 1 are typically evaluated with muscle testing for EMG of arms
