ANSWERS AND EXPLANATIONS




A) True

This answer is correct.


Electrodiagnostic examinations should be thought of as an extension of the physical exam. A 'one size fits all' approach is impractical and insufficent. Every electrodiagnostic examination must be individualized based on the patient's symptoms and signs and the resulting differential diangosis.  (See References)
