The Institute of Clinical Neurophysiology has been active in EMG clinical work and research for more than 3 decades. The monograph "Single Fiber EMG" published by Prof. Jože Trontelj and Prof. Erik Stalberg from Uppsala, Sweden remains the gold standard in the field. More recently research turned to quantitative concentric needle EMG resulting in a series of more than 20 papers published in peer reviewed journals by Dr. Podnar and collaborators. The Italian expertise in EMG detection and interpretation using multichannel electrode arrays and the Slovenian experience in signal decomposition also led to important results published in books and international journals. This workshop presents the available results and the future perspectives to the clinical community with the purpose of finding partners, receiving suggestions and exploring new applications.
