Abstract
- This article discusses the use of magnetic resonance neurography (MRN) in children and adolescents with metabolic neuropathies. The study focused on patients with long-chain 3-hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency (LCHADD) and mitochondrial trifunctional protein deficiency (MTPD). The results showed that MRN was able to detect nerve lesions and functional nerve changes in these patients, indicating its potential as a valuable tool for detecting and monitoring peripheral neuropathy in this population. The findings suggest that MRN could be used as a non-invasive method for diagnosing and assessing neuropathies in children and adolescents. [Extracted from the article]
