摘要
Carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) is the most common peripheral nerve entrapment syndrome. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is increasingly used to diagnose CTS, exclude secondary causes of CTS, and investigate patients with persistent symptoms after carpal tunnel release. Median nerve compression may also be either subclinical in the early stages or present with atypical symptoms. Radiologists are therefore not infrequently the first to alert clinicians as to the possibly of subclinical or atypical CTS. This review shows the normal and abnormal appearances of the carpal tunnel before and after CTR. (C) 2021 The Royal College of Radiologists. Published by Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
