MRI - Arthrography
MR arthrography is highly sensitive for detecting intra-articular disorders (scapholunate and lunotriquetral dissociation, TFCC lesion, chondropathy).

MRI - Contrast agent
Unlike the often-unenhanced examinations, in our opinion it is essential to perform MRI of the hand with the use of contrast agent (intravenous, intra-articular).
MRI - Planes, parameters
Because of the large number of differently aligned structures in several anatomic regions, many dedicated MRI protocols must be used on the hand.
MRI - Positioning, regions
In to obtain a high spatial resolution in a reasonable examination time, the field of view (FoV) and the number of sequences must be kept small in MR imaging.
MRI - Sequence protocols
MRI sequence protocols have to be anatomically and technically adapted to the clinical question and reproducible in the follow-up.
