Mixed Reality Assisted Percutaneous Scaphoid Fixation: A Proposed New Surgical Technique

We describe a technique for how this novel technology might be used in the future to fix scaphoid fractures—MR assisted percutaneous scaphoid fixation. This is done using cadaveric modeling. MR assisted percutaneous scaphoid fixation may have the potential to aid surgeons in achieving an optimal guidewire placement with the ability to reduce surgical time and radiation exposure.
