TEACHING POINTS

The aim of this educational exhibit is: 1. To describe MR appearance of common soft tissue tumours and tumour-like lesions of the hand and wrist. 2. To identify features on MR imaging to help differentiate benign from malignant lesions. 3. To formulate differential diagnosis based on anatomical location and MR appearance.
