Özet
The appearance of a normal peripheral nerve in imaging methods correlates with the histological structure of the nerve. Ultrasonography is considered to be an optimal imaging method to evaluate the normal anatomy and the pathology of peripheral nerves. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a promising diagnostic technique to imagine peripheral nerves. MRI can identify specific muscle denervation patterns within 24–48 hours after denervation. Ultrasonography and MRI are two complementary imaging methods, each having its advantages and disadvantages, which are suitable to study peripheral nerves.
