Peripheral Nerve Ultrasound

Peripheral Nerve Ultrasound

Peripheral nerve ultrasound is a diagnostic imaging modality that uses ultrasound waves to assess nerve structure.

High frequency probes let us determine the exact site of any nerve entrapment. After receiving real-time images we have the advantage of doing dynamic maneuvers to assess nerve stability.

We assess peripheral nerves of head, trunk, lower and upper exteremity.

Indications for peripheral nerve ultrasound:

  • neuropathic pain,
  • pain focusing on the scar,
  • loss of muscle strength,
  • pain after an accident.

Preparing for the examination:

There are no special demands.
