Advanced imaging of the wrist.
Abnormalities of the wrist present a difficult diagnostic challenge requiring thorough evaluation of both osseous and soft-tissue structures. Advanced techniques such as scintigraphy, computed tomography, three-phase arthrography, and, most recently, magnetic resonance imaging have added greatly to our understanding of wrist pathology. This article discusses the application of these techniques in imaging the wrist.
