A prospective study of the possibility of confirming clinically suspected scaphoid fractures was carried out over one year. Analysis of the results suggest that ultrasound scanning of suspect scaphoid fractures is a reliable method of assessing this condition. It has one weakness in that the diagnosis is based on subjective sensation and this may at times be faulty. Our results, however, suggest that once practice in the technique has been achieved, then mistakes are rarely made.
一项为期一年的关于确诊临床疑似舟状骨骨折可能性的前瞻性研究得以开展。对结果的分析表明，对疑似舟状骨骨折进行超声扫描是评估这种情况的一种可靠方法。它有一个弱点，即诊断基于主观感觉，有时可能会出错。然而，我们的结果表明，一旦掌握了该技术，那么很少会出错。
