Nerve Ultrasound in Patients With Friedreich Ataxia

open access: yesMuscle &Nerve, Volume 73, Issue 3, Page 395-402, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Introduction/Aims Nerve enlargement has been reported in patients with Friedreich ataxia (FRDA). The underlying cause remains unclear, and both inflammatory processes and dysmyelination have been suggested as potential mechanisms. This study was aimed at assessing nerve morphology with high‐resolution ultrasound, to identify and describe ...
