1. Laser evoked potential in clinical practice: The diagnostic field in small fiber neuropathy

Small fiber neuropathy (SFN) is frequently encountered in clinical practice. Due to the small nerve fiber characteristics, the diagnosis requires the use of not conventional tests like skin biopsy, Quantitative sensory testing (QST) and Laser Evoked Potentials (LEPs). The aim of this study was to evaluate the diagnostic value of A-delta LEPs in clinical practice in a large cohort of patients with diagnosis of "definite" SFN.We screened 296 patients evaluated in our institution with confirmed diagnosis of sensory neuropathy.
