D
Fr. through the proximal third of the scaphoid
Nondisplaced scaphoid fracrure is not seen on PA view
The fr. is seen only on the scaphoid view.Note that on the PA view,overlap & foreshortening of the distal portion of the scaphoid should not be mistakenly interpreted as an impacted fr. (arrow)
Distal scaphoid fr seen only on the oblique view
SLAC (scaphoid advanced collapse) wrist due to long standing avascular necrosis of the scaphoid
Proximal-row carpectomy used to treat SLAC wrist
Dorsal chip fr.of the triquetrum (arrow)

Fracture of the hook of the hamte seen only on the carpal tunnel view (arrow)
