Motor Nerve Conduction Tests in Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
Background: For the preoperatively often required confirmation of clinically defined carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS), sensory as well as motor nerve conduction studies can be applied. The aim of this study was to test the sensitivity of specific motor nerve

Ultrasound-Guided Electrodes for Conduction Studies of the Saphenous Nerve. [PDF]
PURPOSE Saphenous nerve conduction studies are difficult, because the nerve is hard to localize and evoked responses are small. Ultrasound imaging may assist in the accurate localization and optimal positioning of surface (SE) and needle electrodes ...

Ulnar nerve at the elbow – normative nerve conduction study [PDF]
A goal of our work was to perform nerve conduction studies (NCSs) of the ulnar nerve focused on the nerve conduction across the elbow on a sufficiently large cohort of healthy subjects in order to generate reliable reference data.We examined the ulnar nerve in a position with the elbow flexion of 90o from horizontal.
