As part of the educational program, a two-day course on clinical electroneuromyography was held. Participants mastered standard research algorithms, analyzed typical and atypical patterns in polyneuropathies, radiculopathies, and tunnel syndromes. Special attention was given to interpreting results in complex clinical cases.

A practical masterclass on peripheral nerve ultrasound was conducted. Attendees practiced visualizing nerve trunks of the upper and lower extremities, learned to assess the echostructure of nerves, measure cross-sectional area, and identify signs of compression and inflammatory damage.

During the training, more than 15 clinical cases from Kazakhstani colleagues' practice were reviewed. Topics included differential diagnosis of demyelinating and axonal neuropathies, algorithms for identifying dysimmune forms of nerve damage, and approaches to treatment and dynamic monitoring.

A lecture was delivered on modern approaches to diagnosing hereditary Charcot-Marie-Tooth neuropathies. Genetic aspects, clinical phenotypes, neurophysiological patterns, and principles of genetic counseling were covered. Kazakhstani colleagues showed keen interest in the topic due to the high prevalence of hereditary forms in the region.

Following the visit, agreements were reached on joint scientific projects. A joint study on the prevalence of neuromuscular pathology in the region is planned, along with the development of educational materials in Russian for Central Asian specialists.
