High-resolution sonography of peripheral nerves revealed multifocal nerve enlargement in MMN. Distinct enlargement patterns may support the diagnosis. Ultrasound findings did not correlate well with clinical severity or electrophysiological findings at initial presentation. As changes in UPSS correlated significantly with the clinical course in terms of muscle strength (MRCSS), sonographic assessment may represent a useful tool for therapeutic monitoring.
