Morphometric Parameters of Peripheral Nerves in Calves Correlated with Conduction Velocity
BACKGROUND Peripheral nerve injuries are the most frequent neurologic disorder in cattle. So far, no physiologic values have been established for the motor nerve conduction velocity (mNCV) in this precocial species. OBJECTIVES The electrophysiologic and morphometric reference values of peripheral nerves in calves were determined. It was hypothesized that these parameters would correlate to th...
متن کاملConduction velocity in the peripheral nerves of rats with chronic carbon disulphide neuropathy.
Effects of carbon disulphide (CS2) on conduction velocity in sciatic and tibial nerve were investigated in rats exposed to CS2 vapour at concentrations of 0.9 mg/l or 1.6 mg/l of air for periods of 1.5, 3, 6, 9 and 12 months. The conduction velocity was measured on the day following each exposure period, and again, three and six months after the last day of exposure. The majority of exposed rat...
متن کاملInfluence of height on the nerve conduction study parameters of the peripheral nerves
INTRODUCTION BACKGROUND: Nerve conduction studies (NCS) which assess peripheral nerve functions and their parameters, are known to vary with anthropometric measurements. OBJECTIVE: To study the effect of height on the NCS variables in the peripheral nerves of the limbs. SETTINGS AND DESIGNS: Department of Physiology, normative. METHODS AND MATERIAL: This study was done on 34 (age: 31.24±11.57 y...
متن کاملEstimation of Peripheral Nerve Conduction Velocity Distributions
A complete and accurate description of the conduction properties of the entire population of nerve fibers within a peripheral nerve bundle has long been an important objective of clinical neuromuscular electrophysiology. Access to such information would increase the sensitivity and specificity of neuromuscular electrodiagnostics, and provide improved means of assessing nerve development, growth...
متن کاملAutomated morphometric study of human peripheral nerves by image analysis.
In this paper we describe a program using the image analyzer SAMBA, which allows an automatic analysis of silver stained semithin nerve sections. The operator can interactively delimit the contour of the fascicle to be analysed by means of a digitizing tablet connected to the system which generates a mask of the region. Segmentation of the fibre images is conducted as a function of brightness t...
