This study compared distal radioulnar joint (DRUJ) translation measured using the subluxation ratio (SR) method between maximum intensity projection (MIP) and conventional CT images on 30 wrists with ulnar positive variance. The results show that DRUJ translation can be reliably evaluated with MIP.
