Abstract：
Ultrasound and magnetic resonance neurography are useful modalities to aid in the assessment of compressive neuropathies, although they are still limited in their resolution of nerve microstructure and their capacity to monitor postoperative nerve recovery. Optical coherence tomography, a preclinical imaging modality, is promising in its ability to better identify structural and potential physiologic changes to peripheral nerves, but requires additional testing and research prior to widespread clinical implementation. Further advances in nerve imaging may elucidate the ability to visualize the zone of nerve injury intraoperatively, monitor the progression of nerve regeneration, and localize problems during nerve recovery.
摘要：
超声和磁共振神经成像是帮助评估压迫性神经病的有用方式。尽管它们在神经微结构的分辨率和监测术后神经恢复的能力方面仍然有限。光学相干层析成像,临床前成像模式，很有希望能够更好地识别周围神经的结构和潜在的生理变化，但在广泛的临床实施之前需要额外的测试和研究。神经成像的进一步进展可以阐明术中神经损伤区的可视化能力，监测神经再生的进展，并在神经恢复期间定位问题。
