Abstract:
We present an alternative imaging technique for evaluation of the sacral plexus and sciatic nerve. Images were obtained in the oblique coronal, oblique sagittal, and oblique axial planes using the piriformis muscle as the initial reference point. Evaluation of the sciatic nerve is optimized by the multiplanar capability of MRI.
