Changes in Ultrasound Parameters of the Median Nerve at Different Positions of the Radiocarpal Joint in Patients with Carpal Tunnel Syndrome.

Ultrasound imaging (US) is being increasingly used to aid in the diagnosis of entrapment neuropathies. This study aims to evaluate the shear modulus and cross-sectional area (CSA) of the median nerve in patients with carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS). A total of 35 patients with CTS participated in the study. CSA and shear modulus testing were performed in shear wave elastography (SWE) mode in five positions of the right and left radiocarpal joints (intermediate position 0°, 45° of extension, maximum extension, 45° of flexion, and maximum flexion). There were significant side-to-side differences in the median nerve shear modulus at each wrist position as compared to the asymptomatic side. There were significant side-to-side differences in the median nerve CSA at each wrist position as compared to the asymptomatic side. Shear modulus increases in patients with CTS at different angular positions of flexion and extension of the radiocarpal joint. In individuals with CTS, the CSA of the median nerve is greater on the symptomatic side compared to the asymptomatic side. The CSA decreases in positions of maximum extension and 45° of flexion and in maximum flexion relative to the resting position.
