Design outcomes

Primary

Measure	Time frame
CT scans of both forearms are obtained. Then the CT scans will be used to obtain the position and orientation of the distal part of the radius, what will be compared with three dimensional matching software. Also the patients have to fill in questionnaires about their hand function, and function tests of the wrist and forearm will be recorded.	—
