High-resolution ultrasound has become increasingly useful in the evaluation of peripheral nerves. As we have gained experience, clinically helpful ultrasonographic signs have been detected. One of these is the ultrasonographic Tinel sign, in which paresthesias are produced when the transducer compresses a nerve lesion. This sign has not been previously described. We present a case in which the ultrasonographic Tinel sign helped accurately guide a nerve biopsy in a woman with mononeuritis multiplex.
高分辨率超声在周围神经评估中变得越来越有用。随着我们经验的积累，已检测到具有临床帮助的超声征象。其中之一是超声Tinel征，即当换能器压迫神经病变时会产生感觉异常。此前尚未描述过该征象。我们报告一例超声Tinel征有助于准确指导一位患有多发性单神经炎女性进行神经活检的病例。
