Abstract :
Summary form only given. The authors describe the results obtained by comparing different analyses of the muscular electrical activity recorded by surface electrodes. It is reported that surface electromyogram (EMG) appears reliable in clinical routine when different techniques are concomitantly used in the neurophysiological evaluation of neuromuscular diseases
