| |
− | '''Could put in the video of the ultrasound in here and also a link on how to perform an ultrasound'''
| |
− |
| |
− | Q: What do you think is going?
| |
− |
| |
− | A: <font color="white"> There is a focal hypoechoic area on the dorsal border of the suspensory ligament at its proximal insertion </font>

− | ===Radiographs===
| |
− | '''Put in the actual radiographs and a link on how these radiographs where taken'''
| |
− |
| |
− | Q; How would you interpret these radiographs?
| |
− |
| |
− | A: <font color="white"> Small radiolucent area with new bone formation on palmar mid aspect of the MC3 of RF. This has questionable significance. </font>

− |
| |
− | Q: How would you interpret these results?
| |
− |
| |
− | A: <font color="white"> Mild IRU w/in proximal aspect of left MC2. Mild IRU w/in middle aspect of R MC2 - unlikely to be of clinical significance </font>
