Tibial Nerve Elastography in Chemotherapy-Induced Neuropathic Pain
This observational study aims to evaluate the tibial nerve stiffness using Shear Wave Elastography (SWE) in patients with chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) compared to healthy volunteers. A total of 25 patients with a DN4 score ≥4 and 25 healthy controls will be assessed. Parameters including nerve diameter, cross-sectional area, depth, and shear wave velocity (V value) will be measured. Demographic and clinical data such as age, gender, chemotherapy protocol, duration, comorbidities, and medications will also be collected. The goal is to investigate SWE as a non-invasive diagnostic tool for CIPN by identifying differences in nerve elasticity between groups.
