Multifocal enlargement and increased vascularization of peripheral nerves detected by sonography in CIDP: A pilot study
Conclusion: Multiple nerve enlargements occur in CIDP showing a relation with a lower MRC sum-score, increased nerve vascularization and a higher total protein of the CSF.Significance: Our findings of nerve enlargement and increased nerve vascularization may be tools to monitor disease activity in CIDP, but further studies are needed.
