-Ultrasound and MRI are able to assess the anatomy of dorsal soft tissues and extensor hood at the metacarpophalangeal joint -A theorical superficial to deep multilayer approach is used to recognize each structure -US and/or MRI must be performed after a closed traumatism with normal XRay images -Dynamic evaluation with ultrasound can depict instabilities -Early depiction of injuries can change the treatment  

1- Introduction / normal appearance with a multilayer approach 2- Static and dynamic imaging of dorsal soft tissues injuries at the metacarpophalangeal joint with a multilayer approach : i) Dorsal metacarpophalangeal bursitis ii) Tears of sagittal bands iii) Tears of intertendinous fibrous splits (of the V and II) iv) Tears of intertendinous connections (juncturae tendinum of the second, third and fourth intermetacarpal space) v) Capsular lesions 3- Conclusion
