MR Micro-Neurography and a Segmentation Protocol Applied to Diabetic Neuropathy

Table 2

Comparison of parameters between subjects with diabetic neuropathy and controls. Data is expressed in mean ± SEM. Bold characters are used to enhance statistical significance. DPN = diabetic peripheral neuropathy. NV = mean of the nerve volumes (for a length of 28 mm). FV = mean of the fascicles volumes (for a length of 28 mm). FNR = fascicles to nerve ratio. CSA = mean of the cross-sectional areas. There is statistical difference () in NV, FNR, and CSA between subjects with diabetic neuropathy and controls.

	DPN	Controls		Confidence interval (95%)
				Inferior	Superior
NV (mm^3)			0.028
FV (mm^3)			0.065
FNR			0.040
CSA (mm^2)			0.003
