Nerve Block Gallery - Radial Nerve
Caption
The radial nerve is the least echogenic of the upper extremity nerves, and can be difficult to visualize. It is located lateral (radial) to the radial artery. It is best seen by following the radial artery in transverse proximally up the arm; eventually a bright hyperechoic oval will be visible traveling away from the artery.
