bone cyst
I had an MRI done today and since I work at the hospital I got the report, is states
"there are lesions within the carpel bones which I believe are subchondral cysts. These are in the distal scaphoid and in the promixal capitate. I beleive there is a small dorsal wrist ganglion measuring 4-5 mm just distal to Lister's tubercle." Can someone explain this and if this may require surgery.

In that case I dont think the cysts are a problem
The MRI was done because I had sprained that wrist and had an Xray and the Xray showed a cyst, so my dr. ordered an MRI.

If they are asymptomatic, they probably do not require further treatment. Why was the MRI done?
