Figure 1. Ultrasound imaging in the transverse approach shows the spinous process as a hyperechoic signal (bright) immediately underneath the skin, continued as a vertical triangular hypoechoic (dark) acoustic shadow. This image is used to mark the midline of the spine.

Figure 2. Ultrasound imaging in the transverse approach shows the vertebral body, dural sac, ligamentum flavum, and dura mater. This image is used to mark the intervertebral space.

Figure 3. Ultrasound imaging shows measurements with the built-in caliper. Ultrasound depth (UD, in cm) is the expected puncture depth to reach the epidural space from the skin to the inner surface of the ligamentum flavum–dura mater unit.
