Diagnostic accuracy of ultrasound in carpal tunnel syndrome: analysis of established and novel parameters
This study improves ultrasound-based CTS diagnosis by integrating CSA, E value, and BFPR, offering an effective method for early detection and severity grading. BFPR, especially via SMI, demonstrates high sensitivity for mild CTS and could standardize diagnostic approaches.
