Abstract

Background: Peripheral neuropathies are group of disorder which affects nerves due to various etiologies. Diagnostic imaging helps and play a major role in diagnosing the peripheral neuropathies. Early timely diagnosis of nerve injury is very important in taking treatment decisions. Imaging main role is to diagnose nerve injury/involvement, cause of compression and pathologies mimicking nerve involvement. Aims & Methods: This case series aims to discuss various entrapment peripheral neuropathies & Role of imaging with different modalities. Result & Interpretation: Ultrasound is emerging as a great tool in diagnosing nerve pathologies. It is easily available, cheap, cost effective and best screening tool. Magnetic resonance neurography (MRN) studies help in deeper nerve pathologies, and affected muscle details.
