A Review of Current Concepts in Ultrasound Evaluation and Management of Ulnar Nerve Pain
Melson, M., Tompary, A., Karvelas, K. et al.
Summary/Highlights:
There is strong support for the use of ultrasound in the evaluation and diagnosis of ulnar nerve pain. It has been shown to have comparable sensitivity and specificity to nerve conduction studies in the diagnosis of upper limb nerve entrapment syndromes. Ultrasound of the ulnar nerve (UN) is both a cost- and time-effective means of assessing ulnar nerve pain that allows for more dynamic evaluation of the UN, potential identification of underlying pathology, and assistance with surgical planning.
