ABSTRACT
High-resolution ultrasound (US) of the peripheral nerves is now a standard mode of assessing neuromuscular disorders at some centers. Current standards for diagnosing peripheral neuropathies occasionally lack early sensitivity and can result in delayed diagnosis and treatment. In conjunction with electrodiagnostic studies, nerve US is particularly effective in the diagnosis of entrapment neuropathies, and may offer an alternative means of diagnosing polyneuropathies and monitoring the patient's response to therapy. This article briefly reviews the existing literature regarding ultrasonography in peripheral neuropathy and discusses its implications for diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis.
