This test is usually performed along with electromyography (EMG), which is a diagnostic test that assesses a nerve’s ability to transmit electrical signals to muscles and how well the muscles respond. Nerve damage may indicate the presence of a muscular or nerve disease or a traumatic injury. The purpose of a nerve conduction study is to determine whether nerve destruction or damage has previously occurred. A nerve conduction study, also referred to as a nerve conduction velocity test, is a diagnostic procedure that is performed in order to evaluate how fast an electrical signal can travel along a nerve as well as how strong the signal is.
