Median Motor Nerve Conduction Study - Recording Abductor Pollicis Brevis, Stimulating at Axilla

This photograph illustrates the technique for performing a median motor nerve conduction study, recording from the abductor pollicis brevis (APB) muscle. The recording electrode (G1, black) is placed over the belly of the APB. The reference electrode (G2, red) is placed at the proximal phalanx of the thumb. Stimulation can be performed at the axilla.
