The Role of Confirmatory Testing in Carpal Tunnel Syndrome: Electrodiagnostic Study, Ultrasound and CTS-6.
Carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) is the most common upper extremity compressive neuropathy. The reference standard for the diagnosis of CTS remains an area of controversy. The diagnosis can be established clinically, but options for confirmatory testing include electrodiagnostic studies, ultrasound and diagnostic aids such as the CTS-6 score. This review article summarises the current evidence for each confirmatory testing modality, contrasts their advantages and disadvantages and discusses future directions for investigation. Level of Evidence: Level V (Diagnostic).
