Ultrasound median nerve movement in axial view

Ultrasound median nerve movement in axial view
The axial real-time image of the median nerve (N) is at the level of the distal wrist crease. The video clip captures the normal movement of the median nerve with flexion of the fingers and wrist, as the nerve rotates 90 degrees and dives among the flexor tendons (T). Note that the nerve moves between different tendons with subtle variations in wrist flexion.
