Nerve Conduction Test
Nerve Conduction Test
This test is done to measure a patient’s electrical impulse as it moves through the nerve. It can also be done to identify nerve damage. Usually, during the test, electrode patches are attached to your skin as your nerve gets stimulated.
EMG
EMG
Electromyography (EMG) is a diagnostic procedure to assess the health of muscles and the nerve cells that control them (motor neurons). EMG results can reveal nerve dysfunction, muscle dysfunction or problems with nerve-to-muscle signal transmission.

EEG
EEG
At South Bay Neurology we proudly provide routine and long-term ambulatory video EEG monitoring. EEG test detects the abnormalities in the electrical activity of your brain or in your brain waves. The procedure includes attachment of electrodes, made up of small metal discs and thin wires, onto your scalp. These electrodes will detect little amount of electrical charges as a result of the activity of your brain cells.
