This project aims to provide a comprehensive evaluation of the nerve injury and standardize sensitive ways of measuring nerve function. This is the first study that will follow children throughout their treatment cycle with regular nerve assessments, providing a greater understanding of nerve injury mechanisms and enabling treatment modification.
