Ultrasound is a well‐proven imaging modality for showing peripheral nerve disorders and guiding perineural injections. The aim of this review is to focus on small peripheral nerve abnormalities, which are usually not recognized by sonologists. In fact, most of these small nerves have a tiny diameter (<2 mm), and their anatomy is less familiar. We describe the most common causes of small peripheral nerve disorders, providing an accurate description of their anatomic locations and relationships with adjacent structures; we also focus on technical hints that may help in their evaluation.

Injury to the distal biceps occurs in certain high risk groups. Anatomical continuity of the lacertus fibrosus has bearing on the extent of retraction of the torn tendon stump. The objective of clinical and imaging evaluation is to discriminate between tendinosis, partial tear, acute complete tear and chronic complete tear. A complete tear of the distal biceps tendon can be diagnosed clinically with the Hook test. The traditional Hook test and the resisted Hook test are useful clinical tests. Though x-rays are routinely done, MRI remains the investigation of choice. Non-operative treatment has a role in selected patients with partial tear or patients with complete tear who have low functional demands. Operative treatment is the recommended treatment for complete tear of the distal biceps and is associated with good functional outcome and patient satisfaction.

This pictorial review focuses on the ultrasound (US) appearance of the normal and pathological radial nerve (RN) and its branches and provides tips with which to locate them and avoid misinterpretation of normal findings. A wide range of our pathological cases are reviewed and presented to help in familiarizing the reader with common and uncommon clinical scenarios that affect the RN and its main branches.
