De Quervain's disease: diagnostic imaging.
De Quervain's disease constitutes the most frequently occurring stenotic tenosynovitis. The authors have studied which imaging technique allows for the best representation of anatomopathologic modifications. Ultrasound examination appeared to be the most appropriate and advantageous method as it reveals involvement of the sheaths and tendons in the simplest, most complete, and least expensive manner.
