Abstract
The brachial plexus is difficult to evaluate with conventional radiologic techniques, including CT. However, it is well shown by MR imaging, which has direct multiplanar imaging capability and superior soft-tissue resolution [1-4]. We present our technique for evaluating the brachial plexus, discuss the anatomy, and illustrate normal and abnormal findings.
