Description |
Patients with suspected Horner syndrome and equivocal pupil dilation lag and pharmacologic testing might undergo unnecessary; MR imaging. Our purpose was to increase the diagnostic sensitivity of pupillometry by accentuating sympathetic innervation to the; iris dilator by surface electrical stimulation of the median nerve using a standard electromyography machine. We hypothesized that; any difference in sympathetic innervation to the right and left eye would be accentuated. |
