IMAGING STUDIES OF THE CADAVER HAND USING TRANSMISSION ULTRASOUND SKELETAL RADIOLOGY Hentz, V. R., Green, P. S., Arditi, M. 1987; 16 (6): 474-480

Abstract

Ultrasonic transmission imaging has already demonstrated potential for evaluating structures in the hand. In this study, a cadaver hand was imaged using a transmission scanner with improved imaging capability. The hand was then frozen and serially sectioned and comparisons were made between the sectional anatomy and the corresponding image. Bone (in silhouette), muscle, cartilage, and tendon were visualized with high resolution.
