Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Easy EMG
Read this book cover to cover befor you start your EMG/neuromuscular rotation. Excellent book, every day I go through this book and still I learn new things. Well and very easy and well organized written book.
It simplify the topics. A MUST for neurology/PMNR residents.


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - A must for the resident/beginner
