Fig. 2From: A prospective, randomized comparison of ultrasonographic visualization of proximal intercostal block vs paravertebral blockUltrasound Images Representative highly rated block images before needle insertion for PVB (a) and PICB (b), and immediately before LA administration for PVB (c) and PICB (d). US visualization scores of expert and novice regarding quality of block elements are noted in tables on each image (B:bone, P:pleura, L:ligament/membrane, N:needle).
