Imaging of Peripheral Nerves: AJR Expert Panel Narrative Review

August 21, 2024

Broadcasted Live and Online 12:00 noon–1:00 pm, Eastern Time 
Moderator: Eric Y. Chang, MD
Speaker: O. Kenechi Nwawka, MD

Peripheral nerve imaging provides essential information for diagnosing, staging, and managing peripheral neuropathies. MRI and ultrasound are the imaging modalities of choice due to their high soft-tissue contrast and resolution, respectively. These techniques are critical for imaging in cases of trauma, entrapment syndromes, diffuse inflammatory neuropathies, and tumors.

In this comprehensive webinar, Drs. Kenny Nwawka and Eric Chang will explore both MRI and ultrasound-based techniques for peripheral nerve imaging discussed in this AJR article. Attendees will gain insights into the latest advancements in peripheral nerve imaging, facilitating early and accurate diagnoses for a variety of conditions. Additionally, an overview of image-guided nerve interventions will be presented, highlighting their role in the effective management of peripheral neuropathies.
