Multiple Sites Ultrasonography of Peripheral Nerves in Differentiating Charcot-Marie-Tooth Type 1A from Chronic Inflammatory Demyelinating Polyradiculoneuropathy.
Multiple sites measurement of cross-sectional areas (CSA) by ultrasound was performed to differentiate Charcot-Marie-Tooth type 1A (CMT1A) and chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyradiculoneuropathy (CIDP). ⋯ Consecutive scan along the nerve and multiple sites measurement by ultrasound could supply more detailed morphological feature of the nerve and help to differentiate CMT1A from CIDP.
