FIELD: medicine.
SUBSTANCE: invention can be used for diagnosing the Dupuytren's contracture (DC) of fingers. High-resolution MR imaging covering the palmar aponeurosis of interest is used to record the time of nuclear magnetic relaxation T2 * on hydrogen nuclei of isotropic signal component of the CH2 lipid group. The derived coefficient T2 * is inserted into the discriminate analysis equation: DC=-3.37+0.24·T2 *. CD is diagnosed if the equation value is <0.313. If the derived equation value is ≥0.313, the diagnosis of DC is not confirmed.
EFFECT: technique provides the non-invasive one-hour verification of the DC diagnosis at the pre-clinical stage with no imaged signs of the contracture.
