TLDR
Radiologists diagnosing overuse injuries in hand and wrist must have detailed knowledge of anatomy, sports specific biomechanics and sense of awareness of the sports specific pathology.Abstract:
Radiologists diagnosing overuse injuries in hand and wrist must have detailed knowledge of anatomy, sports specific biomechanics and sense of awareness of the sports specific pathology. Overuse injury in wrist and hand can occur in bones, tendons, ligaments, vessels and nerves. Plain film, with standardized PA and lateral films is the mainstay for initial imaging workup. MRI is extremely helpful, particularly when using a dedicated wrist coil and high field strength (1.5 or 3.0 T) MR scanners. Routinely there is no need for MR arthrographyread more

Effects of isotonic and isometric hand exercises on pain, hand functions, dexterity and quality of life in women with rheumatoid arthritis
TL;DR: This study showed that isometric and isotonic hand exercises decrease pain and disease activity and improve hand functions, dexterity and quality of life as well as mildly increasing muscle strength in patients diagnosed as rheumatoid arthritis.

Ultrasound Features of Trigger Finger: Review of the Literature
TL;DR: In this article, the authors recall the anatomic and pathologic bases and describe the ultrasound features of trigger finger, also including common ultrasound findings and complications after therapy, and thus should be considered the radiologic modality of first choice for diagnosis.

Correction of post-traumatic wrist deformity in adults by osteotomy, bone-grafting, and internal fixation.
TL;DR: A corrective osteotomy for post-traumatic malalignment of the distal end of the radius was performed in twenty patients who were followed for an average of 3.6 years and gave satisfactory results when the preoperative range of motion of the wrist was adequate.
