Who performs needle EMG?

It is the position of the American Association of Neuromuscular & Electrodiagnostic Medicine (AANEM [formerly AAEM]) and other organizations that the needle EMG examination must be performed by a physician with special training in electrodiagnostic medicine (generally neurologists or physiatrists). Performance of needle EMG requires ongoing assessment by the Electrodiagnostic medicine (EDX) provider during the study of each muscle, to ascertain what type of abnormalities exist (if any), their significance, and, based on the results, which other muscles, if any, must be examined. The physician’s decision to perform additional or special electromyographic studies is directly guided by the individual results obtained as the physician seeks to establish evidence of a particular medical diagnosis through the studies performed.

Who can order diagnostic tests?
