  • Fluid collections
  • Bursitis

  • Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
  • Peripheral neuropathy
  • Radiculopathy

Thin, sterile needles are inserted into muscles to measure their electrical activity. This test is highly accurate for detecting nerve dysfunction, identifying conditions like Peripheral Neuropathyand Carpal Tunnel Syndrome.
