Frequently Asked Questions

This ultrasound uses sound waves to examine the soft tissue structures of the hand and wrist — including joints, tendons, ligaments, muscles, and nerves — to detect inflammation, injuries, or abnormalities.
It’s a quick, painless, and radiation-free imaging technique.

You may need a Hand and Wrist Ultrasound if you experience:

  • Persistent pain or stiffness
  • Swelling, redness, or tenderness
  • Reduced grip strength or movement
  • Lumps or cysts
  • Numbness, tingling, or weakness
  • Post-injury or overuse symptoms

It’s especially useful for diagnosing tendon strain, arthritis, or carpal tunnel syndrome.

  • Tendinopathy / Tendon Tears
  • Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
  • Trigger Finger / Thumb Injury
  • Ganglion Cysts or Lipomas
  • Bursitis
  • Ligament Sprain or Tear
  • Arthritis or Synovitis
  • Soft Tissue Tumours or Lumps
  • TFCC (Triangular Fibrocartilage Complex) Tears

Common causes include:

  • Repetitive strain or overuse (typing, lifting, or sports)
  • Tendon or ligament injuries
  • Arthritis or joint degeneration
  • Fracture or trauma
  • Nerve compression (e.g., carpal tunnel)
  • Soft tissue inflammation or ganglion cysts

Ultrasound helps identify the precise cause and inform treatment options.

No special preparation is required.
Simply:

  • Wear loose, short-sleeved clothing for easy access.
  • Remove rings, watches, or bracelets before your scan.

The scan is painless and takes around 15–30 minutes.

You’ll sit comfortably while a small amount of gel is applied to your hand and wrist.
A handheld ultrasound probe is moved gently over your skin to produce detailed live images on-screen.
Your specialist will explain findings immediately after your scan.

Book a scan if you experience:

  • Persistent pain or swelling that doesn’t improve with rest
  • Numbness or tingling, especially at night
  • Loss of grip strength or coordination
  • A lump or bump that’s growing
  • Limited mobility or stiffness

Early imaging ensures timely diagnosis and treatment.

No. Ultrasound is completely safe, non-invasive, and uses no radiation.
It’s suitable for all patients, including those who are pregnant or have implants.

If any abnormalities are detected, your specialist will discuss next steps and may recommend:

  • Physiotherapy or hand therapy
  • Referral to an orthopaedic or nerve specialist
  • Further imaging (MRI or X-ray)
  • Targeted treatment or injection therapy
