Abstract The main goal of this study was to determine the reproducibility of the reading of wrist trauma case radiographs using three different media: laser film, a picture archiving and communication systems (PACS) workstation, and paper with an optimized layout.

There were 82 men and 118 women. The mean age was 48.3 years (16–95 years). Our institutional review board does not require patient approval or informed P. Teixeira : J.
