肌萎縮側索硬化症（ALS）是一種運動神經元死亡的疾病。這會導致進行性肌無力、肌肉萎縮，最終影響呼吸。這是一種致命的疾病。
CMT是一種週邊神經損傷性疾病，主要影響手腳，導致無力、感覺喪失和畸形。它是一種慢性、緩慢進展的疾病，會導致殘疾，但並非致命。
雖然兩者都會導致肌肉無力和萎縮，但導致肌肉無力的*原因*和受累模式卻截然不同。肌萎縮側索硬化症（ALS）是一種中樞神經系統運動神經元疾病，而腓骨肌萎縮症（CMT）是一種週邊神經疾病。

CMT is about peripheral nerves being damaged. This primarily affects the feet and hands, causing weakness, sensory loss, and deformities. It's a chronic, slowly progressive disease that causes disability but is not fatal.

CMT is about peripheral nerves being damaged. This primarily affects the feet and hands, causing weakness, sensory loss, and deformities. It's a chronic, slowly progressive disease that causes disability but is not fatal.
While both involve muscle weakness and atrophy, the *reason* for the weakness and the *pattern* of involvement are fundamentally different. ALS is a central nervous system motor neuron disease, while CMT is a peripheral nerve disorder.
