The aim of this study is to investigate if inexpensive, readily available and portable wireless ultrasound devices can detect ganglion cysts of the wrist and hand in compare to a cart-based ultrasound device before surgery.
42 studies on the registry are indexed under Ganglion Cysts; 7 are open to participants now.
This study's planned enrollment of 90 is above the median of 48 across 10 observational studies indexed under Ganglion Cysts.

Ninety male and female patients with ganglion cyst of the wrist or hand planned for surgery will be recruited at the hand surgery outpatient clinic of the Waldfriede Hospital Berlin. Patients will be diagnosed with ganglion cyst of the hand/wrist by an experienced hand surgeon using clinical and MRI data.
