Usefulness of Nerve Conduction Studies in Neuralgic Amyotrophy?

I have seen studies suggesting similar things before. this study suggests that the usefulness of nerve conduction testing may be questionable for NA because some of the lesions may be at the nerve roots and not at the plexus sites. This could be why my nerve conduction tests were not really that much of a help to me. My insurance covered them back then. Not now.
