Testing of dermatomes is part of the neurological examination. They are primarily used to determine whether the sensory loss on a limb corresponds to a single spinal segment, implying the lesion is of that nerve root (i.e., radiculopathy), and to assign the neurologic “level” to a spinal cord lesion.
