Triangular Fibrocartilage Tear | Radsource - Radsource: PACS Radiology …
MRI allows accurate pre-treatment evaluation of patients with suspected TFCC pathology, and with proper technique and interpretation, provides excellent characterization of TFCC tears and their associated wrist pathology.
MR imaging of the traumatic triangular fibrocartilaginous …
The purpose of this article is to review the anatomy of TFCC, state of art MRI imaging technique, normal appearance and features of tear on MRI according to the Palmar’s classification. Atypical tear and limitations of MRI in diagnosis of TFCC tear are also discussed.
Triangular fibrocartilage complex | Radiology Reference Article ...
2024年6月24日 · The triangular fibrocartilage complex (TFCC) is a complex structure that is a major contributor to the stability of the wrist. The TFCC is located on the ulnar aspect of the wrist joint between the ulna and the lunate and triquetrum of the proximal carpal row. It has an elongated triangular shape with the apex pointing at the radius 5.
Displaced Triangular Fibrocartilage Cartilage Complex Tears
Displaced TFCC tears can be confidently diagnosed with MRI, particularly when a “comma” sign is present. Because displaced flaps extending into the DRUJ are not reliably seen from the standard arthroscopic approach, preoperative MRI is particularly helpful in a patient with ulnar-sided wrist pain.

High-Resolution 3T MR Imaging of the Triangular Fibrocartilage …
In this article, we review recent routine and arthrogram MR protocols of the wrist including the isotropic 3D sequence. Then, normal TFCC anatomy and traumatic/degenerative lesions of the TFCC are described along with high-resolution 3T MR images.
Magnetic resonance imaging of triangular fibrocartilage
MRI OF TFCC INJURY. Injury of the triangular fibrocartilage complex is diagnosed based on MRI findings of irregular (increased) signal intensity, abnormal morphology, and partial or complete transection of the structures by fluid.
MR Imaging of the Triangular Fibrocartilage Complex - Radiology …
2017年9月18日 · The complex geometry and diminutive size of the triangular fibrocartilage complex (TFCC) and its constituent structures can make optimal imaging of the TFCC challenging; therefore, production of clinically useful images requires careful optimization of image acquisition parameters.
MR imaging interpretation of the Palmer classification of triangular ...
1996年1月1日 · Magnetic resonance (MR) imaging may be more useful than arthrography in prospective evaluation of TFCC lesions. MR images accurately demonstrate the structural abnormalities that contribute to ulnocarpal instability and pain.
