Abstract

MRI is increasingly being used to evaluate extracranial peripheral nerve disease in clinical practice.

There is significant heterogeneity between studies investigating the accuracy of MRI. Studies have shown that nerve T2-weighted or STIR hyperintensity, nerve enlargement, and nerve flattening are associated with peripheral nerve disease.
