Correlation between Adult Height and Metacarpal Length Using Advanced Imaging Modalities.

Our findings confirm a significant positive correlation between height and metacarpal length, supporting the hypothesis of a direct relationship. These results suggest that height can be a useful predictor for metacarpal length, potentially aiding in the selection of orthopedic implants and surgical planning for metacarpal fractures. CT scans provide precise measurements, underscoring their value in assessing bony anatomy. Future studies with larger and more diverse populations are needed to validate these findings and explore potential sex-based differences in metacarpal dimensions.
