“What we can measure, we can manage!”
Why is it so important to measure the level of facial nerve recovery? The answer is very simple: What we can measure, we can manage! Before we can start on any rehabilitation program, we need to know objectively how far the facial nerve has already regenerated and what is the level of synkinetic correlation between the muscles before we begin the rehabilitation. The Nerve Conduction Study (NCS) and Synkinetic Correlation Test (SCT) help us with these tasks.
