Nerve Ultrasound Detects Nerve Atrophy in Patients With Ataxia‐Telangiectasia: A Pilot Study
Nerve ultrasound revealed atrophy in the peripheral nerves of A-T patients. This reduction in nerve size may distinguish A-T and highlights the utility of nerve ultrasound as a non-invasive diagnostic tool for peripheral sensorimotor neuropathy. These findings may have important implications for early detection in clinical practice.
