Peripheral neuropathy: clinical and electrophysiological considerations

T Chung, K Prasad, TE Lloyd - Neuroimaging Clinics, 2014 - neuroimaging.theclinics.com
Although neuroimaging has been used routinely to help diagnose focal nerve lesions such
as trauma and tumors for years, the utility of high-resolution MR neurography in the
evaluation of multifocal and systemic polyneuropathies is just now being investigated. 1 For
the neurologist, the anatomic distribution, temporal progression, and electrophysiological
properties of neuropathies guide the differential diagnosis, workup, and management of
most forms of peripheral neuropathy; at present, MR neurography is not part of the standard …
