Ultrasound for the Detection of Oxaliplatin-Induced Peripheral Neuropathy

This pilot clinical trial studies how well ultrasound works in detecting oxaliplatin-induced neuropathy in patients with gastrointestinal cancer. Ultrasound may work better in diagnosing and detecting neuropathy in gastrointestinal cancer patients treated with the chemotherapy drug called a oxaliplatin.本先导性临床试验旨在评估超声（Ultrasound）在检测胃肠道癌症患者奥沙利铂（oxaliplatin）诱导性周围神经病中的应用效果。奥沙利铂是一种化疗药物，在接受该药物治疗的胃肠道癌症患者中，超声或可更有效地诊断并检出此类周围神经病。
