Abstract

High-resolution ultrasonography (US) and magnetic resonance neurography (MRN) have followed parallel paths for peripheral nerve imaging with little comparison of the two modalities. They seem equally effective to study a variety of neuropathies affecting large and small nerves in the wrist and hand. This article outlines the technical considerations of US and MRN and discusses normal and abnormal imaging appearances of hand and wrist nerves from etiologies such as entrapment, injury, tumor, and proximal and diffuse neuropathy, with specific case illustrations.
