Neuropathology considerations: clinical and SEMG/biofeedback applications

Appl Psychophysiol Biofeedback. 2003 Jun;28(2):93-105. doi: 10.1023/a:1023854423970.

Abstract

SEMG investigation protocols are described within the neurological framework. A neuroanatomic pathway is utilized including muscular disease, neuromuscular junction conditions, peripheral neuropathy, radiculopahy, myleopathy, brainstem disorders, cerebellar disorders, subcortical and cortical disease. SEMG findings within the clinical presentation of those pathologies are aimed at improving the diagnostic process and serve to focus the SEMG neuromuscular reeducation (biofeedback) component of the overall treatment plan.
