MRI - Hand
MRI – Hand is an advanced imaging procedure that uses magnetic fields and radio waves to produce detailed images of the hand, including bones, joints, tendons, ligaments, nerves, and surrounding soft tissues. It provides excellent visualization of both hard and soft tissue structures, making it highly effective for accurate diagnosis.
This scan is commonly used to detect fractures, ligament injuries, tendon tears, arthritis, infections, tumors, and inflammatory conditions. It is especially useful in evaluating unexplained hand pain, swelling, stiffness, or reduced mobility. MRI can also help in diagnosing conditions such as syndrome and soft tissue abnormalities that may not be clearly visible on X-rays or CT scans.
The procedure is safe, painless, and does not involve radiation, making it suitable for repeated imaging if needed.
This test is recommended for individuals:
- Experiencing persistent hand pain or discomfort
- With swelling or limited movement in the hand
- Suspected of fractures or soft tissue injuries
- Having arthritis or inflammatory conditions
- With nerve-related symptoms like numbness or tingling
- Requiring detailed evaluation of hand structures
