Ultrasound of peripheral nerves
A diagnostic method that allows you to assess the condition of nerve trunks and identify pathological changes that disrupt the conduction of nerve impulses.
Peripheral nerves, such as the sciatic, median, and ulnar nerves, can be subject to inflammation, injury, and compression.
Ultrasound of peripheral nerves does not require special training. It is enough for the patient to remove clothes and jewelry from the area under study. Additional examinations may be prescribed, depending on the symptoms and the diagnosis.
The patient is placed in a comfortable position on the couch. The doctor applies the gel to the skin to improve the contact of the sensor with the body, and begins the study. The sensor of the device is carried out on the surface of the skin, fixing the size, structure, contours of the nerve and the condition of the surrounding tissues. During the study, the doctor may ask the patient to change the position of the limbs for better visualization. Scanning is performed in longitudinal and transverse projections. The study takes about 15-30 minutes.
A high-frequency ultrasound machine is used for ultrasound. Modern sensors have high resolution and allow you to get a detailed image of small structures.
The patient can immediately return to business as usual after the end of the ultrasound. The results are provided in the form of a conclusion, which should be discussed with the attending physician to prescribe further examinations or treatment for the detection of pathologies.
