Chhabra (radiology and orthopedic surgery, Johns Hopkins U.) and Andreisek (radiology, U. Hospital Zurich, Switzerland) bring together radiologists mainly from Johns Hopkins U. who demonstrate the performance and interpretation of peripheral nerve magnetic resonance imaging studies. They introduce radiologists, neurologists, neurosurgeons, plastic and other peripheral nerve surgeons, and technologists to the basic pathophysiology of peripheral neuropathy, how to produce high quality magnetic resonance neurography images and understand the imaging appearances and clinical relevance of various nerve pathologies, and the role of MR guided intervention. They focus on the most common clinical scenarios, incorporate many images, and address anatomy, pathophysiology, nerve injury, and entrapment; tunnel syndromes of upper and lower extremity nerves; tumors and tumor-like conditions; brachial plexus lesions and associated syndromes; the lumbosacral plexus; and MR guided injections.
