High-Resolution Sonography: A New Technique to Detect Nerve Damage in Leprosy
PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 08/18/09
Jain S et al. – The authors conclude that clinical examination of enlarged nerves in leprosy patients is subjective and inaccurate, whereas sonography provides an objective measure of nerve damage by showing increased vascularity, distorted echotexture and enlargement. This damage is sonographically more extensive and includes more nerves than clinically expected.
