Ultrasound could take the pain out of nerve tests

NCT ID NCT03868189

Summary

This study tested whether using ultrasound to guide a common nerve test could make it less painful and more accurate. Researchers compared the standard nerve test method to one where ultrasound helped find the best spots to stimulate nerves. They measured if this reduced the electrical current needed and improved patient comfort during the procedure.
