EMG-Atlas: Electromyography (EMG) Examination Instructional Video Series
EMG-Atlas is a instructional video series created by Daniel de Souza e Silva, MD and is designed exclusively for physicians and aims to demonstrate the correct technique for needle placement in various muscles during an electromyography (EMG) examination. Each video in the series presents a detailed step-by-step guide, showing the insertion of needles into different muscles of the patient.
EMG-Atlas features 73 muscles across the lower limbs, upper limbs, and trunk;
Real-time synchronization with the examination equipment screen for all muscles included in EMG-Atlas;
High-definition videos showing in detail, with clear instructions, the correct placement of the needle in each muscle examined;
During the videos, in addition to the practical demonstration of needle placement, the electromyography device screen is displayed in real time, synchronized with the patient’s examination. This allows physicians to simultaneously observe the insertion technique and the results obtained on the device.
The videos cover a wide range of muscles, providing specific instructions for each one, and highlight important points such as relevant anatomy, needle insertion depth, and precautions to be taken to ensure the safety and effectiveness of the examination.
This series is a valuable tool for physicians who wish to improve their electromyography skills, offering a practical and detailed overview of the procedure.
