Modern neuromuscular electrodiagnosis (EDX) and neuromuscular ultrasound (NMUS) require a universal language for effective communication in clinical practice and research and, in particular, for teaching young colleagues. Therefore, the AANEM and the IFCN have decided to publish a joint glossary as they feel the need for an updated terminology to support educational activities in neuromuscular EDX and NMUS in all parts of the world. In addition NMUS has been rapidly progressing over the last years and is now widely used in the diagnosis of disorders of nerve and muscle in conjunction with EDX. This glossary has been developed by experts in the field of neuromuscular EDX and NMUS on behalf of the AANEM and the IFCN and has been agreed upon by electronic communication between January and November 2019. It is based on the glossaries of the AANEM from 2015 and of the IFCN from 1999. The EDX and NMUS terms and the explanatory illustrations have been updated and supplemented where necessary. The result is a comprehensive glossary of terms covering all fields of neuromuscular EDX and NMUS. It serves as a standard reference for clinical practice, education and research worldwide.

AANEM-IFCN神经肌肉电诊断医学和超声术语表。

现代神经肌肉电诊断（EDX）和神经肌肉超声（NMUS）需要一种通用语言来在临床实践和研究中进行有效的交流，尤其是对年轻同事的教学。因此，AANEM和IFCN决定发布联合词汇表，因为他们认为需要更新的术语来支持世界各地神经肌肉EDX和NMUS的教育活动。此外，NMUS在过去的几年中发展迅速，现已与EDX一起广泛用于诊断神经和肌肉疾病。该术语表是由神经肌肉EDX和NMUS领域的专家代表AANEM和IFCN开发的，并且已在2019年1月至2019年11月之间通过电子通讯达成了共识。它基于2015年的AANEM和1999年的IFCN的词汇表。EDX和NMUS术语以及解释性说明已在必要时进行了更新和补充。结果是涵盖了神经肌肉EDX和NMUS所有领域的综合术语表。它可作为全球临床实践，教育和研究的标准参考。
