The Use of Doppler Ultrasound to Assess the Blood Flow of Pedicled Vascularized Bone Grafting for Scaphoid Nonunions

Objectives This study aims to assess the blood flow and the vascularity pattern across the newly bridged vascularized bone grafts for scaphoid nonunions using three-dimensional (3D) high frequency power Doppler ultrasonography and its role in the union. Materials and Methods A total of 26 patients with scaphoid nonunions were operated with 1,2-intercompartmental supraretinacular artery (ICSRA) graft. CT scan and 3D high frequency power Doppler...
