Ultrasound of soft tissue masses of the hand
Most soft tissue mass lesions of the hand are benign. Ganglia are the commonest lesions encountered, followed by giant cell tumors of the tendon sheath. Malignant tumors are rare. Often a specific diagnosis can be achieved on imaging by considering the location and anatomical relations of the lesion within the hand or wrist, and assessing its morphology. Magnetic resonance imaging is an excelle...

متن کاملMagnetic Resonance Imaging of Soft Tissue Masses.
Twenty-nine soft tissue masses were studied with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) which proved to be useful in the preoperative evaluation of these lesions. Other imaging modalities employed had significant limitations. Plain films were of little value because of the intrinsically low contrast of soft tissues. Angiography was not necessary unless MRI suggested a vascular lesion or proximity to ...
متن کاملMusculoskeletal images. Clavicular soft-tissue mass.
a mass in the anterior part of his right shoulder. Examination revealed a well-circumscribed lesion over the central one-third of the right clavicle, measuring approximately 8 × 7 cm. The mass was firm, nonpulsatile and immobile, appearing to be contiguous with, and fixed to, the clavicle.

متن کاملIntraoperative ultrasound assistance for excision of impalpable musculoskeletal soft tissue tumors.
Intraoperative ultrasonography is a useful tool for the detection and extirpation of liver metastases, breast masses, and melanoma. However, the efficacy of this technology in intraoperative localization and resection of small soft tissue tumors has not been addressed. The purpose of this study is to report on the efficacy of intraoperative ultrasound assistance in excising impalpable musculosk...
