1) Emg 1) Myogram 
graphic record of the variation with time of voltages associated with the electrical activity of skeletal muscle
Synonym for electromyography ... <investigation> A test which measures muscle response to nerve stimulation. Used to evaluate muscle weakness and to determine if the weakness is related to the muscles themselves or a problem with the nerves that supply the muscles. ... Abnormal results may be seen in myasthenia gravis, polymyositis, carpal tu...
(e-lek″tro-mi´o-gram) the record obtained by electromyography.
(EMG) Type: Term Pronunciation: ē-lek′trō-mī′ō-gram Definitions: 1. A graphic representation of the electric currents associated with muscular action.
Our Electromyogram Main Article provides a comprehensive look at the who, what, when and how of Electromyogram Electromyogram: A test used to record the electrical activity of muscles. When muscles are active, they produce an electrical current that is usually proportional to the level of muscle activity. An electromyogram (EMG) is also called a my...
(ue-lek;tro-mi;uo-gram) A recording of the electrical impulses or activity of skeletal muscles using surface electrodes; EMG.
(EMG) a test to evaluate nerve and muscle function
An electromyogram is a diagnostic test involving the placement of small needles into the muscles to assess the electrical activity of muscle and nerve function. An EMG showing abnormal electrical muscle activity may indicate nerve degeneration (neuropathy) from nerve root compression, disc herniation, or indicate conditions, such as muscular dystro...
[n] - a graphical record of electric currents associated with muscle contractions
electromyogram A graphic representation of the electric currents associated with muscular action.
EMG noun a graphical record of electric currents associated with muscle contractions
a graphic record of the electric currents associated with muscular action. Abbr.: EMG
(EMG) a test that measures the electrical activity of a muscle or a group of muscles. An EMG can detect abnormal electrical muscle activity due to diseases and neuromuscular conditions.
