Ultrasound test for carpal tunnel syndrome sensation
Part of Brain & nervous system, Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This study uses ultrasound to measure the size of a nerve in your wrist and compares it with your sense of touch. It aims to see if the ultrasound results match how much feeling you have lost in your hand.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have been diagnosed with carpal tunnel syndrome through a nerve test.

- You are between 18 and 65 years old.
- You can read and write.
- You do not have other nerve diseases like diabetes, rheumatoid arthritis, or multiple sclerosis.

This trial uses a special ultrasound technique to check for carpal tunnel syndrome (a condition where a nerve in your wrist gets squeezed, causing numbness or pain in your hand). It compares people with the condition to healthy volunteers to see if the ultrasound can help diagnose it.
This study compares two ways to diagnose carpal tunnel syndrome: ultrasound (imaging) and nerve conduction studies (electrical tests). If you have hand symptoms like numbness or tingling, you may be able to join to help find which test is better.
This study tests whether a special ultrasound scan can help doctors better see and treat carpal tunnel syndrome, a common condition that causes numbness and pain in the hand. If you have mild to moderate symptoms, this imaging tool may guide more precise care.
This study uses hand ultrasound to evaluate carpal tunnel syndrome before and after surgery. It may help doctors understand how the wrist changes after treatment.
This study uses ultrasound to look at the wrist in people with carpal tunnel syndrome. It may help doctors better understand how to diagnose and manage this condition.
This study compares two treatments, radiofrequency (TECAR) and ultrasound, to see which one improves sensation, hand dexterity, and quality of life for people with moderate carpal tunnel syndrome. If you are between 35 and 50 and have had symptoms for at least a month, you may be able to join.
