Muscle Function Test Process

Simple Process, Clear Results

Your nerve and muscle testing appointment starts with a discussion about your symptoms and medical history. We want to understand exactly what you’re experiencing and when it started.

The EMG portion involves placing small electrodes on your skin or inserting thin needles into specific muscles to measure electrical activity. For nerve conduction studies, we use surface electrodes to send mild electrical pulses and measure how quickly your nerves respond.

Most testing takes 30-60 minutes depending on which areas need evaluation. You’ll get preliminary results immediately, with a complete report sent to you and your referring physician within 24-48 hours. We’ll explain what the findings mean and discuss recommended next steps before you leave.

Comprehensive Nerve Conduction Study

Complete Diagnostic Testing Available

Our nerve and muscle diagnostic testing covers the full spectrum of neuromuscular conditions. We perform electromyography to assess muscle function, nerve conduction studies to evaluate nerve signal transmission, and specialized testing for specific conditions like carpal tunnel syndrome or peripheral neuropathy.

You’ll receive detailed results that clearly identify which nerves or muscles are affected, the severity of any dysfunction, and how this relates to your symptoms. We coordinate directly with your referring physician to ensure seamless communication about findings and treatment recommendations.

Our Edison Center location offers convenient scheduling with same-day and next-day appointments often available. We work with most insurance plans and provide transparent pricing information upfront so there are no surprises.

Most patients describe the sensation as mild discomfort rather than pain. During nerve conduction studies, you’ll feel brief electrical pulses that might cause slight muscle twitching. The EMG portion involves thin needles that create a sensation similar to acupuncture. Any discomfort is temporary and stops immediately when testing is complete. We adjust the intensity based on your comfort level and take breaks if needed. The entire process is designed to gather accurate information while keeping you as comfortable as possible throughout the appointment.
You’ll receive preliminary results and an explanation of findings immediately after your testing is complete. The comprehensive written report is typically ready within 24-48 hours and sent directly to both you and your referring physician. This quick turnaround means you won’t spend days wondering about results or waiting to discuss next steps with your doctor. If urgent findings require immediate attention, we contact your physician the same day. Our goal is to eliminate the anxiety that comes with waiting for important medical test results.
EMG and nerve conduction studies can diagnose a wide range of neuromuscular conditions including carpal tunnel syndrome, peripheral neuropathy, pinched nerves, muscle disorders, sciatica, and various forms of nerve damage. The testing helps differentiate between nerve problems and muscle problems, identifies the specific location of dysfunction, and determines severity levels. This information is crucial for conditions where symptoms might be similar but treatments are very different. The results guide your physician in developing the most effective treatment approach for your specific situation.
Preparation is minimal but important for accurate results. Avoid using lotions, oils, or creams on your skin the day of testing as they can interfere with electrode contact. Wear comfortable, loose-fitting clothing that allows easy access to the areas being tested. If you’re on blood-thinning medications, let us know in advance but don’t stop taking them unless specifically instructed by your physician. Bring a list of current medications and any previous test results related to your symptoms. Most importantly, try to stay hydrated and get adequate rest the night before your appointment.
Most insurance plans cover medically necessary nerve and muscle testing when ordered by your physician. We verify coverage before your appointment and provide cost estimates upfront so you know what to expect. Our billing team works directly with insurance companies to handle prior authorizations when required. For patients with high-deductible plans or those without coverage, we offer transparent pricing and payment options. We believe financial concerns shouldn’t delay important diagnostic testing, so we work with you to find solutions that fit your situation.
EMG and nerve conduction studies are highly effective at detecting most types of nerve and muscle dysfunction, but they have limitations. These tests excel at identifying problems with peripheral nerves, muscle disorders, and neuromuscular junction issues. However, they may not detect very early nerve damage, certain types of small fiber neuropathy, or some central nervous system conditions. Your physician considers your symptoms, medical history, and test results together to make an accurate diagnosis. Sometimes additional testing like MRI or specialized blood work might be recommended to complete the diagnostic picture.
