Difficulties and inaccuracies in the diagnosis of damages may significantly delay the treatment and reduce its efficacy. Routine X-ray imaging of the wrist joint is insufficiently informative, leaving some fractures undetected. The scaphoid bone has a distinctive shape and position in the wrist joint; thus, when using conventional positioning during X-ray imaging, the fracture line is not always visible, and the scaphoid bone appears shorter. W.R. Stecher, an American surgeon, proposed specific positioning options to examine the entire scaphoid bone, thus improving the diagnosis of scaphoid bone pathology.</p> <p><bold>AIM:</bold><italic> </italic>To compare conventional positioning with three Stecher positioning options; to determine the option that best eliminates the distortion (shortening) of scaphoid bone images.</p> <p><bold>MATERIALS AND METHODS:</bold> The study included 13 volunteers aged 23 to 65 years. X-ray imaging of the wrist joint was performed in all volunteers using conventional positioning and three Stecher positioning options. The scaphoid bone length was measured. The results were processed using the MS Excel Analysis ToolPak (descriptive statistics); the Friedman test was used for repeated measurements.</p> <p><bold>RESULTS:</bold> The scaphoid bone length varied when using different positioning options. All volunteers had the shortest scaphoid bone length when using conventional positioning and the longest when using modified Stecher positioning. The difference in measurements between these positioning options was 2 to 8 mm, which is significant for a small anatomical structure.</p> <p><bold>CONCLUSION: </bold>In this study, the option “fingers clenched + elbow deviation” was found to be the best for frontal X-rays of the scaphoid bone. This approach (modified Stecher positioning) produces scaphoid bone images with minimal distortion, which is crucial for diagnosis, preoperative planning, treatment, and outcome assessment.</p></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="ru"><p><bold>Обоснование.</bold> Переломы ладьевидной кости встречаются часто. Трудности и ошибки в диагностике повреждений серьёзно влияют на своевременность начала лечения и его эффективность. Рутинные рентгенограммы кистевого сустава не дают полной информации, и в ряде случаев переломы могут остаться нераспознанными. Форма и положение ладьевидной кости в кистевом суставе особенные, поэтому при использовании стандартных укладок на рентгенограммах линия перелома может не визуализироваться, а сама ладьевидная кость выглядит укороченной. Чтобы увидеть ладьевидную кость «во весь рост», американский хирург W.R. Stecher предложил особые укладки, улучшающие качество диагностики патологии ладьевидной кости запястья.</p> <p><bold>Цель.</bold> Сравнить стандартную укладку и три варианта укладок по Stecher, определить, какой способ максимально устраняет искажение (укорочение) изображения ладьевидной кости.</p> <p><bold>Материалы и методы.</bold> Проведено обследование 13 волонтёров в возрасте от 23 до 66 лет. Всем добровольцам выполнялась рентгенография кистевого сустава в стандартной укладке и трёх вариантах укладки по Stecher. Измеряли длину ладьевидной кости, для обработки результатов использовали пакет анализа в MS Excel (описательная статистика) и тест Фридмана для повторяющихся измерений.</p> <p><bold>Результаты.</bold> Длина ладьевидной кости при использовании разных укладок оказалась неоднородной. У всех волонтёров минимальная длина ладьевидной кости определялась при применении стандартной укладки, максимальная — при использовании модифицированной укладки по Stecher. Разница в измерениях между упомянутыми укладками составила от 2 до 8 мм, что существенно для небольшого анатомического объекта.</p> <p><bold>Заключение.</bold> Наиболее оптимальным способом выполнения рентгенографии ладьевидной кости в прямой проекции в нашем исследовании оказался вариант укладки «пальцы в кулак + локтевая девиация». Данный способ (Stecher в модификации) позволяет получить изображение исследуемой кости с минимальным искажением, что является важным для диагностики, предоперационного планирования, лечения и оценки его результатов.</p></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>wrist</kwd><kwd>scaphoid</kwd><kwd>fracture</kwd><kwd>pseudarthrosis</kwd><kwd>diagnosis</kwd><kwd>radiography</kwd><kwd>Stecher</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>запястье</kwd><kwd>ладьевидная кость</kwd><kwd>перелом</kwd><kwd>ложный сустав</kwd><kwd>диагностика</kwd><kwd>рентгенография</kwd><kwd>Stecher</kwd></kwd-group><funding-group/></article-meta></front><body></body><back><ref-list><ref id="B1"><label>1.</label><citation-alternatives><mixed-citation xml:lang="en">Duckworth AD, Jenkins PJ, Aitken SA, et al.
