Fig. 6B. 33-year-old man with acute trauma of left wrist and high
suspicion of scaphoid fracture. High-resolution sonogram obtained in sagittal
plane shows hyperechogenic line (arrowheads), parallel to scaphoid
cortex that is more likely related to positive echo signal of anterior
interface of cartilage induced by high gain level than to subperiosteal
hematoma, because scaphoid is almost entirely covered with cartilage.
