Neurological tests (ENG, EMG)
Neurology is the study of the structure and function of the central and peripheral nervous system. functional diseases of the nervous system. At the Buda Musculoskeletal Private Clinic, modern diagnostic tools can be used to map the location and extent of nerve damage, allowing a more accurate surgical and treatment plan to be developed for our patients.

Electroneurography (ENG)
From ENG (electroneurography) test provides information about the condition and function of the nerves in the area. The test involves stimulating the nerves with an electric current and recording the response detected by an electrode placed on the muscle supplied by the nerve.
What is the test method for?
The test is suitable for the detection of diseases of individual surrounding nerves (mononeuropathies), such as tunnel syndromes (e.g. carpal tunnel syndrome) and general diseases of the surrounding nervous system (polyneuropathy). It is also suitable for the detection of diseases of the nerve-muscle transition (myasthenia gravis). It is also useful to distinguish between damage to nerve roots (radiculopathy) and nerve plexus involvement, and can confirm diseases of the spinal motor neurons.
Electromyography (EMG)
From EMG (electromyography) test to get information about how the muscles are working. During the test, a thin needle electrode is inserted into the muscle and the electrical response is recorded at rest or during muscle movement or tensing. The test often gives information when evaluated in conjunction with the ENG test.

Associate Professor, neurologist, clinical neurophysiologist
When is the test method recommended?
It is of primary importance in the case of muscle diseases and pathologies associated with muscle inflammation, but it is also useful for assessing the degree of nerve regeneration and for differentiating between acute and chronic diseases (e.g. polyneuropathy).
EMG (electromyography) scans provide information about the functioning of muscles. During the test, a thin needle electrode is inserted into the muscle and the electrical response is recorded at rest or during muscle movement or tensing. The test often gives information when evaluated in conjunction with the ENG test. It is an essential procedure in the case of muscle diseases and pathologies associated with muscle inflammation, but it can also be used to assess the degree of nerve regeneration and to distinguish between acute and chronic diseases (e.g. polyneuropathy).
