Introduction: In up to 30% of patients with carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS), the cross‐sectional
area (CSA) of the median nerve may not be enlarged. We hypothesize that this could be the …

The objective of this study is to determine cut-off points for the crosssectional areas of the
median nerve proximal and distal to carpal tunnel in moderate and severe Carpal Tunnel …

Carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) is a peripheral neuropathy resulting from chronic median
nerve compression. Chronic compression leads to neurological changes that are quantified …

Objectives To assess the feasibility of using ultrasound (US) image features related to the
median nerve echogenicity and shape for carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) diagnosis. Methods …

Purpose: The median nerve cross-sectional area at the wrist (CSA) and the wrist-to-forearm
ratio of the cross-sectional areas (WFR) are ultrasound parameters used in the diagnosis …

Objective Primary objective was to retrospectively examine the effects of patient age and
carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) related axon loss on median nerve (MN) high resolution …

Purpose This study hypothesized that ratios of sonographic cross-sectional areas (CSAs)
throughout the median nerve provide a more reliable tool for diagnosing carpal tunnel …

BACKGROUND High-resolution ultrasound can be used for diagnosis of carpal tunnel
syndrome with an equal accuracy to electrodiagnostic studies. Up to date there has been no …

Purpose The purpose of the study was to examine the most adequate cut-off point for
median nerve cross-sectional area and additional ultrasound features supporting the …
