Mechanical Properties, Shear Wave Velocity, and Structure of Unimpaired and Diabetic Nerves

Description:

Over the course of disease progression, half of adults with type II diabetes also develop diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN), peripheral nerve damage precipitated by the downstream metabolic effects of hyperglycemia, insulin resistance, and dyslipidemia. This multifactorial pathogenesis of DPN leads to various structural and physiological changes within the nerve, ultimately...
