TARSAL TUNNEL SYNDROME IS A DISSTAL ENTRAPEMENT OF THE?

TIBIAL NERVE

Stimulating a peripheral nerve, increasing the stimulus intensity from maximal to twice the maximal level will

HAVE NO EFFECT ON THE LATENCY OR AMPLITUDE

500

Spiral groove radial neuropathy, also known as __________, occurs when the radial nerve is compressed in the spiral groove of the upper arm bone. This compression can lead to weakness or paralysis of the wrist and finger extensors, and potentially sensory changes in the back of the hand and forearm.
