Masses of the hand and wrist are a common clinical problem. Soft-tissue tumors of the hand and wrist are far more frequent than bone tumors. If clinical examination is equivocal, imaging is often requested. Majority of the soft tissue tumors are benign and it is important to understand typical and atypical imaging features. This chapter aims to present an overview of the imaging characteristics of the most frequent tumors (both benign and malignant), tumor-like soft-tissue lesions, and infections of the hand and wrist.

摘要

Masses of the hand and wrist are a common clinical problem. Soft-tissue tumors of the hand and wrist are far more frequent than bone tumors. If clinical examination is equivocal, imaging is often requested. Majority of the soft tissue tumors are benign and it is important to understand typical and atypical imaging features. This chapter aims to present an overview of the imaging characteristics of the most frequent tumors (both benign and malignant), tumor-like soft-tissue lesions, and infections of the hand and wrist.
