Abstract

Motor Neuron Disease is a heterogeneous group of progressive neurodegenerative disorders, most common of which is Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS). There are many clinical and radiological criteria to diagnose Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis and to differentiate it from other Motor Neuron Disease and Neurodegenerative Disorders. Neuro-Sonography is one of the easily applied tools to diagnose and differentiate ALS. ALS diagnosis is delayed up to three years according to some authors due to the wide differential diagnosis, with cervical degeneration being a common miss-diagnosis.
Objectives: to evaluate the role of neuro-sonography in diagnosis & differentiation of Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis from other causes of progressive mixed upper and lower motor neuron lesion.
