Diagnosing Nerve Damage with EMG [Example 3] | UE Radiculopathy

The video tutorial explains how to use electromyography (EMG) data to diagnose nerve injuries, specifically focusing on radiculopathy in the lower extremity. It guides viewers through identifying affected muscles, confirming the involvement of the L5 nerve root, and understanding nerve anatomy. The tutorial emphasizes the importance of checking both affected and unaffected muscles and highlights the role of the dorsal ramus in confirming radiculopathy.
