Course in EMG, Neurography and Neuromuscular Ultrasound

Clinical Neurophysiology of the Peripheral Nervous system

Organizer: Department of Clinical Neurophysiology, Uppsala University Hospital.

Course faculty: Anna Rostedt Punga, professor and consultant, MD, PhD, Maarika Liik,
Consultant MD, PhD, Nens van Alfen, professor and consultant, MD, PhD.

Description: The course is a comprehensive training course and includes EMG, neurography,
neuromuscular ultrasound and related techniques.

Language: English

Participants: The participants are expected to have basic knowledge in the field of
neuromuscular clinical neurophysiology. The course will be of interest for clinical
neurophysiologists in training (part of the Swedish residency program), neurologists and for
those referring patients to neuromuscular neurophysiological examinations such as pediatric
neurologists and medical rehabilitation physicians.

Course topics:

• Principles, recording and analysis methods of neurography, EMG, neuromuscular
  ultrasound as well as methods to study neuromuscular transmission failure.
• Indications, strategies and typical findings of electrodiagnostic studies in
  neuromuscular disorders as well as pediatric aspects of clinical neurophysiology.
• Interpretation of findings as well as sources of error regarding neurophysiological
  methods of the peripheral nervous system.
• A substantial part of the course includes supervised hands on-sessions of neurography,
  EMG, SFEMG and neuromuscular ultrasound.

Registration: Number of participants is restricted to 25. Cost 18.000 SEK + VAT 25 %
(includes course material, coffee, lunches at the department and one dinner). There will be a
possibility to apply for reduced fee for participants from low-income countries.
