In an effort to improve the radiologist's contribution to the evaluation of the painful wrist, the authors have studied the usefulness of a variety of imaging techniques. Preliminary results of these studies, including: 173 conventional CT, 80 3-D CT, 119 postarthrography CT, 138 multiple compartment digital subtraction arthrography and 55 MRI examinations, are reported, and technical aspects of the examinations are described.
