An electromyograph (EMG) is a diagnostic device that measures and records the electrical activity produced by skeletal muscles. Clinicians use it to identify abnormalities in muscle or nerve function, helping diagnose conditions like neuromuscular disorders, nerve compression, or muscular dystrophy.
These devices are typically regulated as medical instruments, often requiring compliance with standards for electrical safety and signal accuracy. They may be supplied as standalone units or integrated with external systems like computers for data analysis, depending on the manufacturer’s design and intended clinical workflow.
