NCT ID NCT05095870
First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tested whether ultrasound of the nerves can help diagnose CANVAS, a rare genetic disorder that causes balance problems, nerve damage, and dizziness. Researchers measured nerve size in 35 people with confirmed CANVAS and compared them to healthy individuals. The goal was to see if smaller nerves on ultrasound could be a reliable sign of the disease.
