The Effect of Ablation of Epidermal Nerve Fibers Using Capsaicin Cream
Rochester, MN
This is a study of epidermal (the outer most layer) nerve fibers (ENFs) in the skin of the body; counts of which are used to determine a disease of nerves called "small nerve fiber neuropathy."
Capsaicin is approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for pain relief. Since 0.1% capsaicin is known to cause ablation (removal) of ENFs, this study will test whether such ablation results in relief of spontaneous pain, touch, or heat-pain.

Ultrasound Utility in Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
Scottsdale/Phoenix, AZ
As CTS is the most commonly diagnosed compression neuropathy of the upper extremity, assessment of severity and treatment response is important crucial to determine the clinical outcomes. Currently, physical examination and overall functional status as well as pre-op electrodiagnostic (EDX) testing are important in determining patient outcome scores and assessing the treatment response. The physical properties of MN and surrounding tissue may be good biomarkers for this evaluation.
SWE is a qualitative and quantitative method for measuring tissue stiffness. There are limited studies on using SWE for diagnosis of CTS , but other aspects of CTS, including the ...
