Figure 4. For the radial nerve block, starting at the wrist with the linear ultrasound probe in a transverse position over the radial artery (A), scan proximally until the nerve can be visualized separating from the radial artery (B). Locate the radial nerve between the brachioradialis and brachialis muscles. insert your needle from the radial (lateral) aspect of the probe (A&C).
