Abstract
The practice of ultrasound guide blocks requires the development of new abilities, including the ability to recognize nerves and other structures from an ultrasound image. This ability depends on knowledge of cross-section anatomy, which is very different from the customary longitudinal anatomy. In this work, we present a correlation of anatomical and ultrasound cross-sections for select nerve blocks.
