High-resolution magnetic resonance (MR) images of the hands and wrists of 12 patients with a variety of suspected pathologic conditions were obtained at 1.5 T using a prototype surface coil. Lesions included ganglions, rheumatoid arthritis, carpal fractures, carpal tunnel syndrome, and arteriovenous malformations. In the selected cases studied, MR images provided potentially relevant information. Surgical, pathologic, and radiographic correlations were obtained. MR imaging affords delineation of soft-tissue structure that is unmatched by other imaging methods, including computed tomography. It is anticipated that MR imaging of the hand and wrist will afford sufficient valuable clinical information in certain conditions to justify its expense outside a research setting. Further clinical testing, however, is warranted.
使用原型表面线圈，在1.5T磁场下获取了12例患有各种疑似病理状况患者的手部和腕部高分辨率磁共振（MR）图像。病变包括腱鞘囊肿、类风湿性关节炎、腕骨骨折、腕管综合征和动静脉畸形。在所研究的选定病例中，MR图像提供了潜在的相关信息。获得了手术、病理和影像学的相关性。MR成像能够清晰显示软组织结构，这是包括计算机断层扫描在内的其他成像方法无法比拟的。预计在某些情况下，手部和腕部的MR成像将提供足够有价值的临床信息，以证明其在研究环境之外的费用是合理的。然而，仍需进一步的临床测试。
