If the position of a nerve was reversed and its conduction velocity recorded would it be the same as if it were not reversed?

Nerve conduction is the same in both directions. The rate of conduction is mediated by the physical properties of the nerve and the voltage sensitive channels so as long as the diameter is constant the spread of the action potential would be the same in either direction.


What would cause dizziness and tingling fingers on both hands?

Dizziness and tingling in both hands and fingers can be caused by a pinched nerve or the limbs being asleep. It is best to see a doctor if this persists.


What causes the symptoms of transverse myelitis?

The symptoms of transverse myelitis are due to damage and/or destruction of the myelin sheath, the fatty white covering of nerve fibers that serves both to insulate the nerve fibers and to speed nervous conduction along them.


Is the Carpal tunnel nerve conduction velocity test painful?

It can be, about 10-20% of patients will describe it as a discomfort, or electrical stinging sensation. There are two types of test you should be getting; one is a nerve conduction study and the second is an EMG. An EMG is where the provider uses very small needles that are inserted into the muscles of the arms and sends small electrical impulses to test certain nerves in the upper extremities. No there is just about nothing too it. Had the test done on both hands and hardly remember having it done other then paying the doctor.


How is radiation and conduction alike?

both radiation and conduction give heat to another object.


How is radiation amd conduction alike?

Radiation and conduction are alike in the fact that they both transfer energy.

Is a pan over a flame radiation or conduction?

Both the flame heating the pan and the pan heating the water are examples of conduction. Convection is when the molecules of water heat other molecules of water.
