    Author: Zhang XY, Liu JH, Cui Y, Tang P.
    Journal: Fa Yi Xue Za Zhi; 2008 Aug; 24(4):280-3. PubMed ID: 18817040.
    Abstract:
    Assessment of peripheral nerve injury is a common task in forensic practice. As an objective assistance of inspection, electrophysiological examination is significant in the evaluation of peripheral nerve function after injury. There are currently several methods of electrophysiological examination, including I-T curve, EMG, NCV and SEP. Because electrophysiological examination can assess the injury and regeneration of peripheral nerve injury at different times, it is valuable to estimate prognosis of peripheral nerve injury in forensic medicine. Besides the electrophysiological examination, evaluation of the peripheral nerve injury needs to combine other clinical manifestations to provide an accurate appraisal.
