Abstract
A method for performing bronchial denervation, the method comprising an electromyography system having a cryoablation device with at least two recording electrodes. The electromyography system being configured to calculate a difference between a first electromyogram signal received from the first recording electrode and a second electromyogram signal received from the second recording electrode to generate a recorded electromyogram and compare the recorded electromyogram to a reference electromyogram.
