EMNG (FACIAL NERVE)

The EMNG (FACIAL NERVE) test at Hypro Diagnostics is a specialized diagnostic examination concentrating on the facial nerve. This comprehensive evaluation comprises two key components: Electromyography (EMG) and Nerve Conduction Studies (NCS). During EMG, small needle electrodes are employed to assess the electrical activity of specific facial muscles, providing insights into their health and function. NCS measures the speed and strength of electrical signals along the facial nerve, aiding in the assessment of its function. This tailored EMNG test is instrumental in diagnosing and evaluating conditions affecting the facial nerve, such as Bell’s palsy or neurological disorders, offering crucial information about the facial nerve’s integrity and functionality.
