Abstract
The diagnosis of carpal tunnel syndrome diagnosis can be made based on the history and clinical findings in most of the cases, but in doubtful cases, electrophysiological tests and ultrasound can provide additonal and useful information.
Zusammenfassung
Auch wenn Anamnese und der klinische Untersuchungsbefund für ein Karpaltunnelsyndrom charakteristisch sind, und die Diagnose zumeist aufgrund dieser charakteristischen Symptome erfolgt, so kann in einigen Fällen die Messung der Nervenleitgeschwindigkeit und der Ultraschall sinnvolle Informationen Iiefern.
