چکیده
Sensory testing (ST) as a parameter in assessing nerve damage and as a guide in anti-reaction treatment is discussed in comparison with established methods like voluntary muscle testing (VMT) and motor nerve conduction velocity (MCV). Sensory testing is shown to be a valuable addition to the existing tests and may even be used as a single parameter.

متن کاملExtraction of Sensory part of Ulnar Nerve Signal Using Blind Source Separation Method
A recorded nerve signal via an electrode is composed of many evokes or action potentials, (originated from individual axons) which may be considered as different initial sources. Recovering these primitive sources in its turn may lead us to the anatomic originations of a nerve signal which will give us outstanding foresights in neural rehabilitations. Accordingly, clinical interests may be r...
