Conventional radiography is often sufficient for diagnosing wrist bone lesions. Advanced imaging like CT, MRI, and arthrography are crucial for detecting subtle fractures, soft tissue injuries, and early osteonecrosis.

Area of Science:

  • Orthopedics
  • Radiology
  • Medical Imaging

Background:

  • Wrist injuries are prevalent across all age groups.
  • Clinical evaluation is important but insufficient for definitive diagnosis.
  • Radiological assessment is essential for accurate diagnosis of wrist trauma.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the diagnostic utility of computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance (MR), and arthrography in wrist trauma.
  • To compare the effectiveness of conventional radiography with advanced imaging techniques for wrist injuries.

Main Methods:

  • Retrospective analysis of radiological images from 45 patients with wrist injuries.
  • Standard radiography in 4 projections for all patients.
  • CT, MR, and arthrography performed in 25, 9, and 11 patients, respectively.

Main Results:

  • Conventional radiography effectively diagnoses most bone lesions.
  • CT is valuable for subtle fractures.
  • MR excels in detecting soft tissue abnormalities (ligaments, TFCC) and occult bony lesions.
  • Arthrography is optimal for evaluating triangular fibrocartilage and intercarpal ligament injuries, particularly preoperatively.

Conclusions:

  • Conventional radiography is often adequate for bone injuries.
  • CT, MR, and arthrography offer complementary diagnostic capabilities for complex wrist trauma.
  • Advanced imaging modalities enhance the diagnosis of soft tissue and subtle bony injuries, guiding treatment decisions.
