About the Workshop
Our NCV EMG (Electromyography) training program distinguishes itself with several key features. Unlike other leading institutions, we prioritize comprehensive education over sales pitches for equipment or services. At Empire, our hands-on training is led by physician specialists, ensuring that you receive unbiased, non-commercial medical information and the latest standard of care procedures for NCV EMG studies, including cutting-edge protocols.Included in our workshop are educational videos demonstrating detailed demonstrations of the most common EMG and NCVS services you'll be providing. This ensures that you're well-prepared to integrate the technical and business requirements necessary to establish a full nerve conduction studies practice in your primary care office.
Our NCV EMG courses begin with didactic material covering the specific principles of nerve conduction studies, followed by hands-on training to gain proficiency in various procedures. You'll learn how to perform upper and lower extremity nerve conduction studies in the Median, Ulnar, Radial, Superficial Peroneal, Sural, Peroneal, and Posterior Tibial nerves. Additionally, special techniques such as H-Reflex and F-Wave will be taught and demonstrated, ensuring you're equipped with the skills necessary to excel in this specialized field of medicine.
