Article Synopsis
- The localization and prognosis evaluation of peripheral nerve injuries is difficult in acute cases, but high-resolution ultrasound (HRUS) may provide a cost-effective imaging solution.
- A systematic review and meta-analysis of 15 studies demonstrated HRUS's high diagnostic accuracy for traumatic nerve injuries, with sensitivity at 92% and specificity at 86%.
- The findings suggest that HRUS can effectively complement existing diagnostic methods, but further research is needed to explore the ultrasound characteristics of these injuries.
Background: Parkinson's disease (PD) is a major cause of disability. We aimed to assess the benefit of ultrasonography of the vagus nerve (VN) to compare between PD and healthy controls as well as to deliver reference values of nerve cross sectional area (CSA).
Materials And Methods: We performed a systematic search on Medline (PubMed), Scopus, Embase, and Web of Science, up till July 25, 2022.
