Response to: Comment on: Physiological Localization by Sensory and Motor Inching Studies and Structural Abnormalities Detected by Ultrasonographic Changes in Carpal Tunnel Syndrome

We wish to thank the editor for allowing us to respond to the letter to the editor, which raised two concerns: first, whether we kept the subject's hands in the same position for sensory and motor inching and ultrasonographic studies; and second, whether we should have determined the nerve length by ultrasound instead of tape measurement for better accuracy. Comment on: Physiological localization by sensory and motor inching studies and structural abnormalities detected by ultrasonographic changes in carpal tunnel syndromeArchives of Physical Medicine and RehabilitationVol. 103Issue 2PreviewI read the article entitled “Physiological localization by sensory and motor inching studies and structural abnormalities detected by ultrasonographic changes in carpal tunnel” in the August 2021 issue.1 It was an interesting article that evaluated the correlation between ultrasound findings and electrophysiological inching studies. Additionally, the motor inching study precisely measured the second lumbrical muscle, which was localized at the point of anatomic entrapment by ultrasound. Full-Text PDF
