We compared median nerve normal values between samples of Indian and Dutch populations. <jats:italic>Methods<\/jats:italic>: The median nerve was examined by US at the wrist in 100 healthy volunteers in India and 137 volunteers in The Netherlands using the same protocol. <jats:italic>Results<\/jats:italic>: Median nerve CSA at the wrist (7.0\u2009\u00b1\u20091.1 mm<jats:sup>2<\/jats:sup>) in the Indian cohort was lower in comparison to the Dutch cohort (8.3\u2009\u00b1\u20091.9 mm<jats:sup>2<\/jats:sup>; <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\u2009&lt;\u20090.05). This difference was still present after controlling for age, height, and weight (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u20090.001). <jats:italic>Conclusions<\/jats:italic>: CSA normal values for the median nerve were different between the examined population samples even after correcting for age, height, and weight.
