Abstract:High-resolution neurosonography (HRNS) has become a major imaging modality in assessment of peripheral nerve trauma in the recent years. However, the vascular changes of traumatic lesions have not been quantitatively assessed in HRNS. Here, we describe the vascular-ratio, a novel HRNS-based quantitative parameter for the assessment of intraneural vascular alterations in patients with nerve lesions. N = 9 patients suffering from peripheral nerve trauma were examined clinically, electrophysiologically and with H… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
