| Popis: | The superior soft tissue contrast and multiplanar capability of MR imaging has contributed to earlier diagnosis and implementation of effective treatment for a variety of arthropathies and infectious conditions of the elbow, wrist, and hand. Because of overlapping clinical signs and symptoms, MR imaging plays an important role in delineating the features and staging of each of these conditions. This article discusses the seropositive and seronegative inflammatory arthropathies, with emphasis on early detection and surveillance, as well as gout, synovial osteochondromatosis, pigmented villonodular synovitis, tenosynovitis, and de Quervain's tenosynovitis. Certain noninflammatory arthritides and infectious conditions are also reviewed. |
