Core Tip	The diagnostic value of grey-scale sonography and sonoelastography in carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) is reviewed. Sonography can potentially allow a noninvasive screening, and could therefore be a preferable first-line approach to detect pathological changes of the intracarpal tunnel contents. This review summarizes the current knowledge of sonographic findings as a diagnostic tool in CTS.
