Various electrical methods for the diagnosis and study of human physiology and pathology are now in general use. The most important of these are the electrocardiogram, electroencephalogram and electromyogram. All are a measure of the electrical activity within the tissues of the organ under study. Pathological changes within the tissue cells are reflected by a change in electrical recordings from the normal. Clinical progress has been considerable with these electrical devices.
