Optimal active electrode placement for Tibial nerve conduction study (NCS) recording the medial gastrocnemius; a novel technique in NCS

Key Points

• The novel technique enhances accuracy in measuring tibial nerve function, improving clinical assessments.
• Key evidence shows a significant reduction in recording variability with this electrode placement method.
• Assessment using optimal electrode positioning for nerve conduction studies in the medial gastrocnemius muscle shows promising results.
• This method highlights a potential improvement over traditional techniques, which may benefit clinical practice in neurology.
