Wrist pain Evaluation is limited by motion artifact on some sequences LIGAMENTS: There is mild increased signal intensity within the membranous portion of the scapholunate ligament which may reflect intrasubstance degeneration; however contrast remains within the radiocarpal joint without extension to the midcarpal joint to suggest a scapholunate or lunotriquetral ligament tear.TRIANGULAR FIBROCARTILAGE COMPLEX: Although we see no contrast entering the distal radioulnar joint, there is a gap within the articular disc of the triangular fibrocartilage at its attachment to the distal radius indicating a tear. TENDONS: No significant abnormality noted. BONES: There is loss of the cartilage along the proximal margin of the lunate with underlying degenerative subchondral signal abnormality.ADDITIONAL
1. Tear of the articular disc of the triangular fibrocartilage at its radial attachment with chondromalacia of the adjacent lunate.2. Mild intrasubstance degeneration of the scapholunate ligament but there are no gadolinium-filled tears.
