Article Synopsis
- - Hand and wrist infections vary in severity, classified as superficial (e.g., cellulitis, paronychia) or deep infections (e.g., septic arthritis, osteomyelitis), based on their location relative to tendons.
- - Understanding the compartmental anatomy of the hand and wrist is crucial for diagnosing and managing these infections effectively.
- - Multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) is a valuable tool in emergency settings, aiding in the evaluation of these infections by providing detailed imaging of the affected areas.
Background: The prevalence of minimally invasive thymectomy (MIT) is increasing and may have significant benefit to patients in terms of morbidity and post-operative recovery. Our aim was to review the Mayo Clinic experience of MIT.
Methods: We reviewed data from all MIT cases collected in a prospectively maintained database from January 1995 to February 2015.
High-resolution multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) has played a pivotal role in assessing patients following trauma; however, recent advancements in technology including dual-energy CT, as well as multiplanar and three-dimensional (3D) capabilities, are expanding the potential clinical applications of CT to include nontraumatic pathologies. This article will review optimal technical parameters for the creation of MDCT and 3DCT images and illustrate the imaging capabilities of 3DCT imaging for demonstrating nontraumatic hand and wrist pathology.
