DISTAL RADIOULNAR JOINT
1. Patient position: Sitting or in supine with wrist in full pronation and resting on the table
2. Probe/transducer position: a. SX view/transverse view: Place the transducer over the dorsum of the distal end of radius
and ulna to bridging both bones.
b. LX view/longitudinal view: Once you have located the joint in the SX view, turn the probe
90 degrees to evaluate the joint in the LX view (Figure 2-18).

(A) Probe placement. (B) Ultrasound image of the distal radioulnar joint (white arrow); note that the extensor digiti minimi (white triangle) overlies it. Extensor digiti minimi appears dark in this image due to anisotropy. (C) Relevant anatomy and transducer position for imaging the distal radioulnar joint.
3. Relevant anatomy: The triangular fibrocartilage complex (TFCC) is the major stabilizer of the distal radioulnar joint. The fifth dorsal compartment tendon, the extensor digiti minimi, directly overlies the distal radioulnar joint. On the volar aspect, the pronator quadratus muscle fibers are oriented transversely.

4. Points to remember: The distal radioulnar joint is commonly involved in rheumatoid arthri­tis and can cause secondary pathological changes in the extensor digiti minimi tendon that overlies it.

2. Probe/transducer position: a. SX view/transverse view: Locate Lister’s tubercle in the SX view and then move the probe
distally to get the scapholunate joint view to visualize the interval. The dorsal band of the scapholunate ligament appears as a hyperechoic triangular structure with an average thick­ness of 1.1 mm and average length of 4.2 mm. this region (Figure 2-20) .

3. Relevant anatomy: Lister’s tubercle is an important bony landmark to navigate to the scaph-
olunate interval dorsally.
4. Points to remember: The scapholunate interval can be compared with the contralateral wrist to
measure the separation distance in cases of ligament tear. A scapholunate distance larger than
4.2 mm is an indication of a tear in the dorsal band of the scapholunate. Dynamic assessment can be performed with radial/ulnar deviation or clenching of the fist.

1. Patient and probe/transducer position: a. Dorsal view: Patient seated with the hand in full pronation and resting on the table. Ask
the patient to radially deviate the wrist to open up the ulnar aspect of the wrist. Place the transducer in the LX view over the dorso-ulnar aspect of wrist joint, keeping the distal end of the ulna and triquetrum bone in view. The TFCC is seen as a triangular region between the ulnar and triquetrum through the acoustic window of the ECU tendon (Figure 2-23).

2. Relevant anatomy: The TFCC comprises the dorsal and volar radioulnar ligaments, central articular disk, meniscus homologue, ulnar collateral ligament (UCL), subsheath of the fifth and sixth dorsal compartments, proximal portion of the ulnolunate, and ulnotriquetral liga-
14
ments.
It cannot be evaluated in full detail with the ultrasound imaging and requires mag­netic resonance imaging or arthroscopic assessment. Only the periphery of the TFCC can be visualized with ultrasound.
3. Points to remember: Patients with a TFCC tear present with ulnar-sided pain, instability, click­ing, and difficulty with activities like turning a doorknob. Radial and ulnar deviation of the wrist are often painful.
HAND AND DIGITS
Volar Aspect
Anatomy of the region is shown in Figures 2-27 and 2-28.
Figure 2-27. Flexor tendons of the digit and the flexor tendon sheath. On the volar aspect of the digit, the flexor
tendons (flexor digitorum profundus [FDP] and FDS) are surrounded by a synovial layer (blue) and contained within the flexor tendon sheath (purple), which is further divided into areas of annular (A1-A5) and cruciate (C1-C3) pulleys. The metacarpophalangeal (MCP), proximal interphalangeal (PIP), and distal interphalangeal joints on the volar aspect are covered by volar plates (orange), which also provide insertion to the flexor tendon sheath on either side. The flexor tendon sheath provides stability to the flexor tendons by holding it close to the bone and joint as the finger moves into flexion and extension. (DP = distal phalanx; MC = metacarpal; MP = middle phalanx; PP = proximal phalanx.)

Figure 2-28. Volar aspect of the digit in a transverse section at the level of proximal phalanx showing 2 tendon slips of
the FDS and 1 tendon slip of the FDP surrounded by the synovial layer (pink) and contained within the flexor tendon sheath (blue). On either side of the tendon are digital nerves and blood vessel bundles.
1. Patient position: Sitting with wrist in full supination and resting on the table
2. Probe/transducer position:
a. LX view/longitudinal view: The transducer is placed in LX alignment with respect to the
digit of interest. The digit is scanned proximal to distal to evaluate the structures in con­tinuity (Figure 2-29).

b. SX view/transverse view: The transducer is placed in SX alignment with respect to the
digit of interest. The digit is scanned from proximal to distal to evaluate the structures in continuity (Figure 2-30).

the SX view of the digit showing the FDS tendons overlying a single FDP tendon contained within the pulley or flexor tendon sheath (blue), with the digital artery (white A) and digital nerve (N) on either side.
3. Relevant anatomy: It is important to understand the anatomy of the digits. Figure 2-27 shows the FDP and FDS of the digit covered by the synovial layer, which helps in the gliding of the tendon. The flexor tendon sheath is a tunnel-like structure attaching on the margins of the phalangeal bones and palmar ligaments, starting from the head of the metacarpal to the distal phalangeal joint level. The flexor tendon sheath is divided into regions of annular and cruciate pulleys depending on the fiber orientation of the sheath. It is important to note that the flexor tendon sheath forms a tunnel with denser areas at the annular pulley, oblique fiber arrange­ment at the cruciate part of the pulley, and in between the loose, thin part of the sheath where synovial outpouching may be seen.

4. Points to remember: At the level of the metacarpal head, the FDP is deep to the FDS. At the level of the proximal phalanx, the FDS splits and is seen as 2 superficial slips on either side of the FDP. The FDS then attaches to the middle phalanx, and the FDP emerges superficial to travel distally to attach to the distal phalanx.
Dorsal Aspect
Anatomy of the region is shown in Figure 2-31.
