1. To know the typical locations of carpal and tarsal coalitions. 2. To see the atypical locations of carpal and tarsal coalitions. 3. To understand the pitfalls and advantages of radiography, CT, and MRI.

1. Typical locations of carpal coalitions: lunotriquetral coalition and capitohamate coalition. 2. Aypical locations of carpal coalitions: pisohamate coalition and scaphotrapezial coalition. 3. Typical locations of tarsal coalitions: talocalcaneal coalition and calcaneonavicular coalition. 4. Atypical locations of tarsal coalitions: talonavicular coalition, cubonavicular coalition, the first naviculocuneiform coalition, and lateral cuneiform-the thrid metatarsal coalition. 5. Imaging modalities including radiography, CT, and MRI to detect the types of coalition such as osseous, fibrous, and cartilaginous in nature.
