  • Title: [Magnetic resonance tomography of scaphoid pseudarthrosis: clinical and x-ray aspects].
    Author: Nägele M, Schade G, Kuglstatter W, Wilhelm K, Lienemann A, Gamarra F, Lumper W, Hahn D.
    Journal: Rofo; 1990 Nov; 153(5):522-7. PubMed ID: 2173056.
    Abstract:
    37 patients with non-unions of fractures of the carpal scaphoid were examined with MRI and the results compared with conventional radiographs. Advantages of MRI are the documentation of concomitant soft tissue changes in the region of the pseudarthrosis, and the early detection of osteonecrosis of one of the fragments. Advantages of conventional radiographs are the exact documentation of cancellous bone morphology and the position of the fragments.
