In this pilot study, hypertonic dextrose solution was used to induce fibrosis of the subsynovial connective tissue (SSCT) and create an animal model of potential use in the study of carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS). The SSCT of the carpal... more
Methods We studied brain activation induced by bilateral electrical stimulation of the median nerve in fi ve patients in MCS (aged 18-74 years) compared with 15 controls (19 -64 years) and 15 patients (19-75 years) in a persistent... more
Attenuation of cerebral evoked responses after stimulation of the median nerve in the hemiplegic limbs suggested that an apparently pure motor hemiplegia in some patients may not have pure involvement of the corticospinal system.... more
The Semmes-Weinstein Monofilament Test (SWMT) is a clinical widely used test to quantify the sensibility in patients with Carpal Tunnel Syndrome (CTS). No study has investigated the relationship between the SWMT and sensory nerve... more
This study aimed at identifying the anatomic structures which may be responsible for entrapment neuropathies of the median nerve. Thirty upper extremities of 15 formalin fixed adult cadavers were dissected from the axilla to the distal... more
Carpal tunnel syndrome is the most frequent among entrapment neuropathies. It is mainly due to entrapment of the median nerve at wrist level. The authors analyze conservative treatment options, which can be useful in the early stages of... more
We describe a neuroimaging protocol that utilizes an anatomical atlas of the human head to guide diffuse optical tomography of human brain activation. The protocol is demonstrated by imaging the hemodynamic response to median-nerve... more
