The field of biomechanics has welcomed magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) as a research
tool to provide quantified anatomy of various body parts in vivo. The ability to view …

Magnetic resonance imaging was done on the wrists of 14 volunteer subjects with the wrists
in the neutral position, then flexed and extended at 45 degrees. Computer enhanced cross …

While deviated wrist postures have been linked to the development of carpal tunnel
syndrome, the relative contributions of posture-related changes in size, shape and volume of …

Objectives.(1) To develop a methodology to determine the trajectories of the digital flexor
tendons using MRI.(2) To examine changes in tendon trajectories due to wrist posture, with …

Magnetic resonance (MR) imaging has developed rapidly as a diagnostic tool in the
evaluation of the wrist. In this article, the authors review simple high-resolution technique …

As the incidence of diagnosed carpal tunnel syndrome continues to increase, an
understanding of the mechanism (s) of insult to the median nerve which leads to its …

In the evaluation of both normal anatomy and pathology of the wrist and hand, magnetic
resonance (MR) imaging is a standard at hand and radiology society meetings. With MR …

Magnetic resonance imaging is one of the newest diagnostic techniques for evaluating the
complex anatomy of the wrist. It is the only diagnostic modality that can directly depict …

This thesis explored anatomical factors thought to contribute to hand dysfunction in three
major studies which examined:(1) the effects of wrist posture and tendon loading on carpal …

Successive cross-sectional areas (CSA) of the carpal tunnel were measured with the fingers
in both extension and full flexion in 12 healthy volunteers using magnetic resonance …
