Event Details
Audio-Visual electromyography (AVEMG) is a new method of automated analysis of the volitional EMG activity with graded force of contraction. It provides on-line guidance without changing the workflow of the routine EMG. In this webinar we will review the various measurements made in AVEMG and how they are assessed to recognize the underlying pathology in real time.
Learning Objectives:
Measuring the EMG signal: Fullness of pattern, Amplitude, Sound, Firing rate & the ’Fence’ pattern
Understand the plots of measurements and normal limits for 10 commonly tested muscles of the upper and lower limb
When is a study abnormal?
Patterns in neuropathy and myopathy
Workflow & Reporting with AVEMG

Ph.D.
With over 30 years of experience, Sanjeev is an award winning author, editor and reviewer, researcher, instrument design engineer, teacher, and clinical expert in the EMG field. He has delivered lectures, workshops and seminars in over 25 countries at universities, hospitals and EMG conferences. As an editor, Sanjeev started the “EMG on DVD” educational series. In collaboration with other clinicians, he developed Motor Unit Number Index (MUNIX) along with Multi-Motor unit Analysis (MMA) and Turns & Amplitude (TA) methods available on Natus EMG systems. His primary research interest is in Automatic analysis of EMG signals, Modeling EMG signals and Technical aspects of EMG waveforms. Sanjeev is currently a Senior Consultant at Natus Medical. Sanjeev is also Adjunct Professor of Neurology at Medical College of Wisconsin.
