Inflammatory neuropathies comprise a heterogeneous group of conditions united by inflammation-mediated damage to peripheral nerves and their vasa nervorum. Although classification, diagnosis and management are largely based on clinical features, electrodiagnostic and laboratory examinations, imaging studies play an important supporting role. Ultrasound and MRI are the two modalities used for imaging peripheral nerves. The two techniques differ in the clinical context of application, the information provided and the diagnostic performance. This narrative review aims to provide guidance on when and how to use ultrasound or MRI in patients with inflammatory neuropathies, highlighting their respective strengths and pitfalls, and how to combine these imaging modalities to enhance their usefulness in the diagnostic-therapeutic management of these far from rare conditions.

Evidence-based updates of best clinical practice across the spectrum of musculoskeletal conditions.
Best Practice & Research: Clinical Rheumatology keeps the clinician or trainee informed of the latest developments and current recommended practice in the rapidly advancing fields of musculoskeletal conditions and science.
The series provides a continuous update of current clinical practice. It is a topical serial publication that covers the spectrum of musculoskeletal conditions in a 4-year cycle. Each topic-based issue contains around 200 pages of practical, evidence-based review articles, which integrate the results from the latest original research with current clinical practice and thinking to provide a continuous update.
Each issue follows a problem-orientated approach that focuses on the key questions to be addressed, clearly defining what is known and not known. The review articles seek to address the clinical issues of diagnosis, treatment and patient management. Management is described in practical terms so that it can be applied to the individual patient. The serial is aimed at the physician in both practice and training.
