Recently, with sonographic nerve swelling, it has been shown that intraneural injection can be detected as early as 0.4 mL.

Senior anesthesiologists performed ultrasound guided intraneural injections of the nerves using a modified Visioplex needle with a fiberoptic sensor embedded. 12 injections were performed, two on each nerve (radial, ulnar, and median) for each anatomical preparation. 3 mL of saline methylene blue mix was injected at 10 mL/min.
