Corneal Confocal Microscopy in Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS) as a Diagnostic Tool for Small Fiber Neuropathy
CCM may one day replace skin nerve biopsy as a diagnostic tool for SFN in POTS patients. Although this preliminary analysis did not demonstrate significant findings, likely due to the small sample size, we believe CCM may still have a role in POTS research and could eventually become a diagnostic tool used in autonomic clinics.
