Dear Editor,
our and several previous studies demonstrated a high diagnostic value of ultrasound for carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) [1,2]. Among the various abnormalities within the carpal tunnel reported, the increase of the cross -sectional area (CSA) of the median nerve is the most commonly studied ultrasound abnormality [3]. In addition, ultrasound allows the identification of secondary causes of CTS such as sy...

Dear Editor,
We read with great interest the report by Dejaco and co-authors related to diagnosis of carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) by ultrasound [1]. Dejaco et al. compared ultrasound measurement of median nerve cross- sectional area (CSA) at different anatomical landmarks in great detail and evaluated the value of intranerval power Doppler signals for CTS diagnosis. It provided a good data support for the ultrasonic...
