Myography

Myography is a method of studying muscles that allows you to determine their condition and functionality. This method is used in medicine to diagnose various diseases of the muscles and nervous system.

Myography is carried out using special equipment - an electromyograph. It is a device that records electrical signals that occur in muscles during their contraction. Electrodes that are attached to the skin send these signals to a computer where they are processed and analyzed.

Using myography, you can determine the presence of muscle weakness, spasms and other disorders. This method can also be used to evaluate the effectiveness of treatment for muscle and nerve diseases.

However, myography has its limitations. For example, it cannot provide information about the state of muscles that cannot be examined using electrodes. In addition, myography results may be inaccurate if the muscles are at rest or if they are not relaxed.

Overall, myography is an important method for studying the muscles and nervous system, which can help doctors make the correct diagnosis and prescribe effective treatment.
