Should we be imaging soft tissue masses of the hand and wrist?

We examined the relationship between pre-operative clinical diagnosis, radiological diagnosis (ultrasonography (US) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)) and histopathological findings of soft tissue lesions of the hand. A retrospective review of 62 patients undergoing excision of soft tissue masses of the hand between 2015 and 2018 was conducted. The most common diagnoses were: ganglion (n=23), fibroma (n=8), giant cell tumour (GCT) (n=6) and vascular malformation (n=4). 31 patients underwent pre-operative imaging with US and/or MRI.
