Zusammenfassung
Die konventionelle Diagnostik der Läsionen peripherer Nerven basiert auf der Anamnese, der klinisch-neurologischen sowie der elektrophysiologischen Untersuchung. Diese Methoden reflektieren den funktionellen Status der untersuchten Nerven und geben Auskünfte über das Vorliegen einer Nervschädigung, deren Akuität, Charakter (axonal/demyelinisierend) und eventuelle Regenerationsprozesse. Über den morphologischen Status der Nerven sowie deren Umgebung, vor allem im Bezug auf die Ätiologie der Erkrankung, informieren die klassischen Untersuchungsmethoden nicht ausreichend. Moderne Schnittbildverfahren wie die Sonografie und die Magnetresonanztomografie können morphologische Veränderungen und Abnormitäten der Nerven z. B. bei einer Nervenkompression darstellen, die Diagnose somit genauer spezifizieren und zur adäquaten therapeutischen Entscheidung beitragen. Somit sollten sie heutzutage zum festen Bestandteil der Diagnostik gehören.
