Scaphoid non-union healed without a bone graft, percutaneous fixation only (pictures from before surgery -> union 3 months on). Thought I would post seeing as the majority of the scaphoid non-union posts involve bone grafting.

Overall I'm very pleased with the outcome. Just posting to help raise awareness as it has been a very stressful, long journey. Whilst I do still have the original X-Ray images from the day I fractured it, they're on a disc so I doubt I can get the pictures up haha.

Context:

Fractured my scaphoid in a climbing accident, X-Ray missed the fracture, found out it was fractured 4 months later, doctor said we could get away with not doing a bone graft, ultimately it is virtually healed 3 months on from surgery.

AI for radiology - A survey

Hello folks! We are a group of students from Karolinska Institutet and Stockholm University (Sweden). We are conducting a short survey (it should not take more than 10 minutes of your time) to evaluate an Artificial Intelligence framework for evaluating medical imaging and, in particular, the effect that explainability can have on clinicians' attitudes toward it. We welcome anyone who interacts with medical imaging to take our survey, so please, feel free to do it even if you are still a student or an intern! If you know someone who works in the field, please, pass them the survey. It would help us greatly. https://bit.ly/RTEX_survey Thanks in advance to all of you! submitted by /u/francozzz [link] [comments] source https://www.reddit.com/r/Radiology/comments/r2ratp/ai_for_radiology_a_survey/
