Do EEG or EMG skills atrophy if not practiced for one year?

Hello everyone,

I was curious that if one does a fellowship (such as stroke or MS) after one year of clinical neurophysiology, can it lead to the loss of neurophysiology (EEG or EMG) skills?

Simply curious.
Thanks!

Yes but it’s like riding a bike—they will come back.
