Ultrasound nerve identification. Note: During ultrasound identification of the saphenous nerve, the probe is positioned transversely on the medial aspect of the thigh following the course of the nerve distally. Before its division, the nerve is located at a crossroads comprised of the m. sartorius on the superficial plane, the m. vastus medialis on the medial side and surrounded by the femoral vein (blue) and the superficial femoral artery (red).
