Ultrasound as a Complementary Tool to Electrodiagnostics in the Evaluation of Compressive Neuropathy of the Common Fibular Nerve
This retrospective review found that ultrasound may provide complementary diagnostic information to EMG/NCS for compressive neuropathy of the CFN. Further study is needed to examine the relationship between ultrasound findings for CFN compressive neuropathy and results of surgical decompression.
