Electromyography and Neuromuscular Disorders: Clinical-Electrophysiologic Correlations, 3rd Edition is a leading reference for understanding the diagnosis and evaluation of neuromuscular diseases through electromyography (EMG) and nerve conduction studies (NCS). Authored by internationally recognized neurologists David C. Preston and Barbara E. Shapiro, this comprehensive textbook integrates clinical neurology with electrodiagnostic medicine, making it an essential resource for physicians, neurologists, physiatrists, clinical neurophysiologists, and healthcare professionals involved in the diagnosis of neuromuscular disorders.

This extensively updated third edition presents a practical, evidence-based approach to performing and interpreting electromyography and nerve conduction studies. It explains the physiological basis of electrodiagnostic testing while providing clear guidance on identifying normal and abnormal findings across a wide range of neuromuscular conditions.

The book features hundreds of high-quality EMG waveforms, nerve conduction tracings, anatomical illustrations, clinical photographs, tables, and diagnostic algorithms that help readers correlate electrophysiologic findings with patient symptoms and physical examination results. Numerous clinical case studies demonstrate how electrodiagnostic testing is applied in real-world medical practice, improving diagnostic accuracy and patient management.

Comprehensive chapters cover peripheral neuropathies, radiculopathies, plexopathies, mononeuropathies, motor neuron diseases, myopathies, neuromuscular junction disorders, entrapment neuropathies, cranial neuropathies, and inherited neuromuscular diseases. The text also includes updated recommendations on EMG techniques, nerve conduction protocols, ultrasound applications, and modern diagnostic approaches used in neuromuscular medicine.

Whether you are preparing for board examinations, completing a neurology or physical medicine residency, expanding your expertise in clinical neurophysiology, or working in electrodiagnostic laboratories, Electromyography and Neuromuscular Disorders: Clinical-Electrophysiologic Correlations, 3rd Edition provides the in-depth knowledge and practical guidance needed for accurate diagnosis and effective patient care.

Available at Buy Book Mart, this trusted medical textbook is an invaluable addition to the professional library of neurologists, physiatrists, rehabilitation specialists, and medical trainees seeking one of the most respected resources in electrodiagnostic medicine.
