I know the peripheral nervous system is all connected at the spinal column. If spinal EEG can be conducted, could it be possible to observe movement of limbs on a EEG chart?
The discussion centers on the feasibility of detecting electrical EEG signals from spinal disks to observe limb movement. It is established that while EEG is typically used for brain activity, EMG (Electromyography) is the appropriate tool for measuring electrical signals from peripheral nerves. The conversation highlights the connection between the peripheral nervous system and the spinal column, emphasizing the limitations of EEG in this context.
