Vet Clin North Am Equine Pract. 2011 Dec;27(3):481-506. doi: 10.1016/j.cveq.2011.08.001. Epub 2011 Oct 15.

Abstract

NMD is an important cause of morbidity in horses. Signs of dysfunction could be variable depending on the specific area affected. NM disease can go unrecognized if a thorough evaluation is not performed in diseased horses. Electrodiagnostic testing is an area that has the potential to document and improve our understanding of NM disease yet is uncommonly performed. Keeping an open and observant mind will enhance our ability to search and find answers.
