Cervical root stimulation (CRS) was compared with conventional EMG, nerve conduction, and late response studies in 34 patients with possible cervical radiculopathy. Cervical roots were stimulated by monopolar needles inserted into paraspinal muscles, recording compound muscle action potentials in biceps, triceps, and abductor digiti minimi muscles. In 18 patients with clinical evidence of radiculopathy, EMG was abnormal in 11 (61%), but CRS was abnormal in all 18. Of 16 patients with symptoms but no signs of radiculopathy, EMG was abnormal in 5 (31%) and CRS was abnormal in 9 (56%).
