PURPOSE: The contralateral unaffected side is often used as a reference in planning a
corrective osteotomy of a malunited distal radius. Two-dimensional radiographs have
proven unreliable in assessing bilateral symmetry, so we assessed 3-dimensional
configurations to assess bilateral symmetry. METHODS: We investigated bilateral symmetry
using 3-dimensional imaging techniques. A total of 20 healthy volunteers without previous
wrist injury underwent a volumetric computed tomography of both forearms. The left radius …
