Why is this test performed?

It is used to detect nerve damage, muscle disorders, and problems in nerve-to-muscle communication across multiple limbs.

What is the difference between NCV and EMG?

NCV measures the speed and strength of electrical signals in nerves, while EMG evaluates the electrical activity of muscles.

Is the NCV + EMG 4 Limbs test painful?

NCV may cause mild discomfort due to electrical stimulation, and EMG may cause slight discomfort from a small needle insertion into muscles, but both are generally well tolerated.
