Chronic wrist pain remains a challenge to diagnose and treat. A thorough history and physical examination are key. Various imaging techniques are essential to the evaluation of the patient with chronic wrist pain. Standard radiography, computed tomography, cinearthrography, magnetic resonance imaging, radionuclide imaging, arthroscopy, and arteriography all may have a role in assessment, and the orthopaedic surgeon should be familiar with the indications, strengths, and weaknesses of each. Laboratory tests may also be useful in evaluation. No all-inclusive algorithm can be applied in this setting; therefore, the physician must rely on his or her diagnostic acumen to successfully assess and treat chronic wrist pain.
