CIPN may involve multiple regions of the peripheral nervous system, ranging from the autonomic nerves and dorsal root ganglia (DRG) to the axons and any type of peripheral nerve fibers. Large-diameter sensory myelinated fibers (Aβ) are often affected, but motor fibers, small myelinated fibers (Aδ), unmyelinated fibers (C), or autonomic nerve fibers may also be involved. Here, we review the evidence for CIPN assessment techniques in current clinical and experimental settings. Nerve conduction studies (NCS) can be utilized in the subclinical and early stages of CIPN to assess the extent of large nerve fiber damage and monitor long-term prognosis, with the sural or sural dorsal nerves being the most worthy of study. Quantitative sensory neurological examinations provide valuable data alongside NCS. Quantitative sensory testing and nerve excitability studies add information regarding pathophysiology. Neuroimaging techniques such as nerve MRI and high-resolution ultrasound can provide information on nerve enlargement, increased nerve signal intensity, and changes in the DRG or spinal cord. Intraepidermal electrical stimulation can reveal the extent of damage to small unmyelinated nerve fibers undetectable by NCS. Molecular imaging techniques can be applied in preclinical high-throughput drug screening. Photoplethysmography suggests that vascular physiological testing may also be an assessment tool. Therefore, multimodal testing is recommended as the optimal CIPN assessment strategy, using objective NCS and other specialized techniques as well as patient subjectively reported outcome measures.展开更多
