Nerve Conduction Velocity Studies in Phantom Limb Pain

[Morton]

Hi,

Could somebody tell me the role of NCV (Nerve Conduction Velocity Studies) in Phantom Limb. I’ve been wracking my brains to find the answer to this question, ( which appeared in a previous question paper of our University) but couldn’t find a suitable answer.

Atleast some material/journal/book/web link which contains useful information regarding this. I’ve gone through Neuro Diagnostic books (Kimura, Misra) and several Electrotherapy books but my search was futile.

Urgent please....

Thanks for the exhaustive info. I'm still going through all of them.
