Comparison of sensitivities of macro EMG and concentric needle EMG in L4 radiculopathy

The purpose of this study was to compare the sensitivities of macro EMG (mEMG) and concentric needle EMG (cnEMG) in showing abnormality in L4 radiculopathy. We evaluated 23 patients with clinically and radiologically proven L4 root lesions. Among these patients, 21 (92%) had cnEMG abnormalities. Out...
