Correction factors exist to allow for the dramatic effect that temperature has on nerve conduction study parameters. However, these are based on normal nerves in normal individuals and may not be appropriate in the diseased nerve setting. Our clinical study showed that in carpal tunnel syndrome, the
Conduction along the sural nerve was studied in 64 normal subjects using near-nerve electrodes. Conduction velocities over the same nerve segments were calculated: (1) from the latency recorded from a site of stimulation to a site of recording (1R-method); and (2) from the difference in latency betw
## Background and Objective: To investigate the effect of pulsed lowintensity laser irradiation on nerve conduction in the human superficial radial nerve and on temperature in the skin overlying the nerve. Study Design/Materials and Methods: Thirty-two healthy human volunteers were recruited and r
