Scroll down for more hand MRI scan information.A hand MRI scan can reveal the cause of pain, stiffness, swelling, weakness, nerve tingling and numbness, giving an in-depth, three-dimensional view of its intricate soft tissue structures and bones.An upright hand MRI scan allows the hand to be examined in a comfortable upright sitting position from different angles, enabling patients to be scanned in the position that is causing pain.The hand consists of 27 bones making up the wrist, palm, fingers, thumb joints and knuckles, with an intricate network of blood vessels, muscles, tendons, nerves, joints, and ligaments. These are arranged to roll, spin, and slide allowing the hand to explore and control the environment and objects.
