Ulnar Nerve Cross-sectional Area among Ulnar Neuropathy Patients and Healthy Subjects – A Study in Hospital-based Population of Eastern India [PDF]
Journal of Orthopaedic Case ReportsIntroduction: Ultrasound (US) examinations of the ulnar nerve and measurement of cross-sectional area (CSA) are now used to diagnose cases of ulnar neuropathy. However, the CSA values vary across the population. The present study was planned to prepare a

Evaluation of the ulnar nerve with shear-wave elastography: a potential sonographic method for the diagnosis of ulnar neuropathy [PDF]
Ultrasonography, 2021 Purpose This study was designed to verify whether shear-wave elastography (SWE) can be used to differentiate ulnar neuropathy at the cubital tunnel from asymptomatic ulnar nerve or medial epicondylitis.
