Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Echo-nerve tracking during an electroneuromyographic (ENMG) examination by identifying the optimal stimulation site would reduce the stimulation intensities delivered to the patient and thus improve the tolerance of this examination.
