“…An adapted system, combining incremental stimulus and multiple point analysis is increasingly used to improve estimate accuracy. Novel, computerized methods of MUNE are coming to the fore including the MScan fit and MUNIX methods, to improve analysis accuracy and time, and circumvent biases incurred by operator input, which are intrinsic weaknesses noted in traditional methods (94, 95). Their clinical role is yet to be elucidated in terms of sensitivity, specificity, and reproducibility in healthy controls and for individuals with SMA.…”
