Abstract

Ultrasonography allows high-resolution visualisation of the peripheral nerves for quantitative and qualitative analyses. We report cross-sectional area values (quantitative measure) and echo intensity values (qualitative measure) for 46 peripheral nerve sites in upper and lower extremities in cadaveric specimens.
