How is an EMG report intended to be used?

  1. As a standalone medical diagnosis

  2. For entertainment purposes

  3. Integration by a physician with other tests

  4. As a legal document

The correct answer is: Integration by a physician with other tests

An EMG report is not intended to be used as a standalone medical diagnosis (option A) because it is one part of a larger diagnostic process. It is not intended for entertainment purposes (option B) because it is a serious medical test. It is not intended to be used as a legal document (option D) because it is not a legal document and does not hold the same weight as a legal document. The intended use of an EMG report is for integration by a physician with other tests (option C) in order to form a full and accurate diagnosis for a patient. Physicians may use an EMG report in combination with other tests, such as a physical examination and imaging scans, to get a comprehensive understanding of a patient's condition. Therefore, option C is the correct answer.
