Howe et al 1994 (British Journal of Radiology)
- Neurography can be used to make a projection image of the median nerve passing through the carpal tunnel and simplifies the assessment of nerve movement during joint flexion. Some carpal tunnel syndrome patients have nerve compression while others have adhesion and impaired nerve movement without having compression.

Dailey et al 1996 (Neurosurgery)
- Nerve image hyperintensity in severe radiculopathy can be measured as a contrast to noise ratio which is statistically significant. In some cases, the presence of this finding can identify pathology and lead to effective surgery in patients who otherwise could not be diagnosed or treated.

Cornwall et al 2000 (Clinical Orthopedics & Related Research)
- Assessment of nerve injury after traumatic injury such as hip dislocation can be aided by the use of MR Neurography.

- An overview of basic science, technical considerations and clinical utility of MR Neurography in the management of carpal tunnel syndrome.

Weig et al 2000 (Pediatric Neurology)
- Evaluation of pediatric nerve injuries can be accelerated and simplified when MR Neurography imaging is applied. Imaging may be more sensitive that other techniques for identifying the site of pathology.

Heilbrun et al 2001 (Journal of Neurosurgery)
- Identification of small isolated nerve tumors, including perineuriomas and schwannomas is greatly improved by the application of MR Neurography.

Moore et al 2001 (American Journal of Neuroradiology)
- Cross sectional high resolution nerve imaging can identify specific nerve abnormalities in sciatic entrapment syndromes of the pelvis. Specific findings in piriformis syndrome are also noted.

Moore et al 2001 (Neurology)
- Unusual conditions such as neurolymphomatosis can be diagnosed more efficiently with the early application of MR Neurography. This also demonstrates that routine nerve imaging can play an important role in the diagnosis of pelvic pain syndromes.

Cudlip et al 2002b (Journal of Neurosurgery)
- A prospective trial with thirty patients and eight volunteers demonstrated that MR Neurography accurately identifies pathology in carpal tunnel syndrome and also can demonstrate the effectiveness of surgery with post-operative imaging.
