With numerous advancements in early detection and multimodal therapy, cancer has
become a chronic disease. As the number of cancer survivors continues to
increase, physiatrists and other neuromuscular disease specialists are more
likely to encounter individuals with residual impairments, disabilities, and/or
handicaps resulting from cancer or related treatments.

especially prone to injury directed at the peripheral nervous system at multiple
anatomic levels. Electrodiagnosis is an invaluable tool in the evaluation of
neuromuscular disorders in this patient population.
