Accuracy and Determinants of Radiographic Diagnosis in Pediatric Hand Fractures

Our findings suggest that review by experienced pediatric radiologists is associated with higher diagnostic accuracy for pediatric hand fractures, particularly Salter-Harris injuries. Prospective studies are needed to determine whether incorporating senior review into routine workflows reduces missed diagnoses.
