Figure 3A: The green line (A) indicates the initial location. Note the femoral artery (FA) and femoral vein (FV) as well as the femoral head.
Figure 3B: Maintaining the probe parallel to the inguinal crease, slide the probe a bit cephalad. The blue line (B) indicates the ideal location for the PENG block. Note the anterior inferior iliac spine (AIIS), the iliopubic eminence (IPE), and the psoas tendon (PT). The femoral vasculature (FA/FV) and femoral nerve in the proximal aspect of the ultrasound screen will often be visible at this location.
