Y P O • Stimulation of the roots: (TMS) C – Excites the roots at foramina T • Overestimation of CMCT O – Lower limbs may be difficult to assess N O • F-Waves method: D – Assumes conduction is normal at proximal E segments (Guillain-Barre S.) S – Proximal muscles or muscles with no F-waves A may be difficult E – More accurate L P – Needs 2 stimulators
