Is there a trend in CT scanning scaphoid nonunions for deformity assessment?—A systematic review

Highlights • Is There a Trend in CT Scanning Scaphoid Nonunions for Deformity Assessment? • A systematic review. • The effect of scaphoid nonunion deformity on wrist function is uncertain. • Most articles use standard, unreliable 2-D measures to assess scaphoid deformity. • There is a clear trend in the use of CT scans in the workup of scaphoid nonunions. • CT enables creating 3-D images, which may improve assessing scaphoid deformity. • With this trend, assessing deformity with 3-D CT will be increasingly accessible.
