The evaluation of peripheral nerve impairment can use echography, MRI and CT. The alteration of the nerves in tunnel syndromes, especially if symptoms are not sufficiently contributive, is clearly visualized with MRI. Echography is very useful in the diagnosis of nerve tumors and neuromas. Plexus brachial palsies need to be evaluated using MRI. Progress in neuroimaging has improved clinical practice so that the most relevant treatment can be chosen for some pathologies such as infiltration performed under CT scanner guidance. The authors report which exam to use and the results to be expected for each pathology.
