Myasthenia gravis (MG) is an autoimmune, slowly progressing neurological condition leading to skeletal muscle weakness (mostly muscles of the eyes and face). It is caused by patient‘s autoantibodies that block or destroy nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (AChR) at the neuromuscular junctions. AChR-autoantibody detection is therefore the most specific marker in the diagnosis of MG. If ...
Diabetic peripheral neuropathy is one of the most common complications of diabetes, potentially leading to loss of sensation, foot ulcerations and eventually amputation 1 . Treatment of these complications can be expensive 2 yet many are avoidable 3 , making early identification and intervention key to improving patient outcomes and reducing health costs. Neuropen ® is the only peripheral ...

The DuoMAG MP is a single pulse Mono-phasic stimulator used primarily for diagnostic purposes when combined with EMG systems in MEP or collision studies. The major feature of this stimulator is the high-energy pulse (700 Joules per pulse) which is significantly higher than other stimulators that combine Bi-phasic and Mono-phasic pulses in one system. The high energy pulse is neccessary for ...
