title: [Ultrasonic study of the soft tissues of the hand. I. Study technic and normal anatomy of the palm].
abstract: Ultrasound enables a worthwhile static and dynamic study of the soft tissues of the hand, provided that a high-resolution real-time is used. Accurate examinations are feasible after a several months of training because of the difficulty of the anatomy. The authors, studying 200 normal hands, describe their technique based upon the use of a 7.5 MHz multifocused linear phased-array real-time transducer and the normal ultrasonic anatomy.
