Evaluation of persons with suspected lumbosacral and cervical radiculopathy: Electrodiagnostic assessment and implications for treatment and outcomes (Part II)

Muscle and Nerve, 2020
The electrodiagnostic (EDX) examination with needle electromyography (EMG) is the most important means of testing for radiculopathy. This test has modest sensitivity but high specificity and complements imaging of the spine.

Posterior Cervical Foraminotomy Via Full-Endoscopic Versus Microendoscopic Approach for Radiculopathy: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis.

Pain Physician, 2019
BACKGROUND Recently posterior cervical foraminotomy (PCF) performed using a minimally-invasive surgery (MIS) approach for cervical radiculopathy due to lateral disc herniation or osseous foraminal stenosis has gained popularity.

Cervical Radiculopathy

Spine, 1986
This paper is a review of current information on cervical radiculopathy. The focus is on the natural history of the process, the accuracy of diagnostic tests to determine etiology, the differential diagnosis involved, and the surgical tactics available.

Effects of active versus passive upper extremity neural mobilization combined with mechanical traction and joint mobilization in females with cervical radiculopathy: A randomized controlled trial

Journal of Back and Musculoskeletal Rehabilitation, 2019
BACKGROUND: Neural mobilization is an effective technique in the management of cervical radiculopathy (CR). However, the difference between active versus passive upper extremity (UE) neural mobilization techniques in the management of cervical ...

Immediate and Short‐term Effects of Thoracic Spine Manipulation in Patients With Cervical Radiculopathy: A Randomized Controlled Trial

Journal of Orthopaedic and Sports Physical Therapy, 2019
•BACKGROUND: Thoracic spine thrust manipulation has been shown to improve patient‐rated outcomes for individuals with neck pain. However, there is limited evidence of its effectiveness in patients with cervical radiculopathy.

Imaging in Radiculopathy

Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation Clinics of North America, 2011
All patients presenting with signs and symptoms of lumbar radiculopathy must undergo a thorough history taking and physical examination. Often, however, the diagnosis remains unclear; it is accurate anatomically, but the underlying cause of the lesion is not confirmed, or the symptoms are so severe that more information on the anatomy is required ...

Electrodiagnosis of Radiculopathies

Neurologic Clinics, 1985
Electrophysiology assesses function and should be considered complementary to, not as competing with, myelography, which assesses structure. Electromyography, being devoid of morbidity and significant side effects, should precede invasive radiology: myelography and contrast-enhanced computerized tomography (CT).

Electrophysiology of radiculopathies

Clinical Neurophysiology, 2002
The anatomy, pathophysiology, and clinical evaluation of radiculopathies are discussed. Defining whether root injury is present and which roots are involved can be difficult but critical for patient management. In conjunction with clinical and radiological information, studies that establish physiological abnormalities of roots should be helpful and ...
