Progressive Muscular Atrophy

Electromyographic analysis in spinal progressive muscular atrophy, juvenile unilateral muscular atrophy, neural progressive muscular atrophy and myeloradiculoneuritis.

Recently, as diagnostic aids of neurological science, not only electromyography but also other techniques such as motor nerve conduction velocity, evoked potentials and strength-duration curve have been performed. In this paper, the first, the standard value of conduction velocities and the critical value of reduced conduction velocities in pathologic condition were discussed, because the probl...
