dc.description.abstractThis study compared the cost‐effectiveness and patient impact between acute magnetic resonance imaging ( MRI ) management and conventional management in the diagnosis of occult scaphoid fractures in a rural setting. MRI dramatically reduces the amount of unnecessary immobilisation, time of treatment and healthcare usage in a rural setting. When potential societal costs, the amount of unnecessary immobilisation, low prevalence of true fractures and patient satisfaction are considered, acute MRI should be the management technique of choice.-
