Arm 2
Active Comparator
Experimental
Control-arm group
Test-arm group
The control-arm group will consist of healthy volunteers with no known prior trauma in the wrists. The diagnostic truth for subjects in the control-arm will be no fracture and the treatment truth will be no treatment.
The test-arm group will consist of subjects who present with a wrist injury and initial SOC X-ray imaging results show a confirmed or suspected distal radius or scaphoid fracture, for which additional diagnostic imaging shall be ordered. Diagnostic truth for subjects in the test-arm will be the per-subject clinical diagnosis and the treatment truth will be the per-subject treatment received.
