Wrist MRI Arthrogram v Wrist Arthroscopy: What are we Finding?
The aim of the study was to compare the radiological findings of wrist arthrogram with wrist arthroscopy. This allowed us to establish the accuracy (sensitivity, specificity) of MRI arthrogram as a diagnostic tool. Thirty patients (20 female and 10 male) have undergone both wrist MRI arthrogram and wrist arthroscopy over the last 3 years at a District General Hospital. The mean age at arthrogra...

Several different diagnoses can manifest with similar symptom patterns despite varying pathologies. A precise knowledge of the anatomy of the hand and wrist often eliminates several diagnostic considerations on the basis of the physical examination alone. The history of the illness ...
متن کاملDiagnosis of ulnar wrist pain.
In the diagnosis of ulnar wrist pain, physical examinations including provacative tests are primary elements in identifying the site and nature of ulnar wrist pain. Imagings techniques are helpful for diagnosing occult fractures and distal radioulnar subluxation, but unsatisfactory for diagnosing ulnocarpal impaction syndrome, tears of the triangular fibrocartilage complex and lunotriquetral li...

A fall onto an outstretched hand can lead to a scaphoid fracture, which is the most commonly fractured carpal bone. Conventional radiography alone can miss up to 30 percent of scaphoid fractures. Specialized views (e.g., posteroanterior in ulnar deviation, pronated obl...
