    Scaphoid fractures are the most common carpal bone fractures, with early detection critical to prevent complications like avascular necrosis.

  • 2

    X-rays are commonly used for scaphoid fracture diagnosis but have low sensitivity, leading to a high rate of missed occult fractures.

  • 3

    AI, particularly Convolutional Neural Networks, shows promise in improving the detection accuracy of scaphoid fractures on wrist radiographs.

  • 4

    This systematic review evaluates existing AI methods for scaphoid fracture detection, analyzing their diagnostic accuracy and potential applications.

  • 5

    The review included ten studies, highlighting the variability in sample sizes and methodologies used to assess AI's effectiveness in diagnosis.
