Nerve Echogenicity: Changes in High-Resolution Nerve Ultrasound in Carpal Tunnel Syndrome after Surgery

The aim of our prospective study was to detect changes in nerve echogenicity of the median nerve before and after successful surgery in patients with carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) using high-resolution ultrasound. Fifteen patients with a definite diagnosis of CTS who underwent surgery were scanned by one examiner with high-resolution ultrasound, and images were analyzed by two blinded raters using ImageJ to assess the echogenicity of the median...
