MRI examination is done for more detailed assessment of the osteofibrous tunnel. This is combined with nerve conduction studies for the evaluation of the nerves from the cervical roots to the hand to exclude intrinsic pathology of the nerve or a possible focal disease somewhere else along its course UR - http://172.23.153.220/th.pdf ER -
