Ultrasonography (USG) has been used as a cost-effective and comfortable technique in the examination of the carpal tunnel and the median nerve in the last decade. Material and Methods: Thirty-five wrists of 21 patients with the signs, symptoms and electromyelography (EMG) confirmed diagnosis of CTS and 40 wrists of healthy adults were evaluated by ultrasonography (USG), performed with a 7.5-12 MHz transducer. Results: All of the 35 wrists of 21 patients with CTS diagnosed by EMG and 40 wrists of 20 healthy adults were diagnosed accurately. Conclusion: USG may be performed as a first step test in the diagnosis of suspected CTS.trinfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessCarpal tunnel syndromeEMGHigh resolution USGArticle2322632692-s2.0-78649748910Q4
