Association between smartphone use, sleep deprivation, and self‐rated health outcomes: A retrospective observational survey in rural Japan

High‐Resolution Ultrasound of Clinically Relevant Sensory Nerves of the Arm and the Forearm

Journal of Ultrasound in Medicine, EarlyView.
Technological advancements in ultrasound systems, particularly the development of high‐ and ultra‐high‐frequency transducers, now allow for the detailed evaluation of sub‐millimetric sensory nerves in the upper limb, extending to their distal branches. This provides invaluable insights in patients with suspected neuropathies.
