We report a series of scaphoid fractures fixed with titanium alloy Herbert screws in which postoperative Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) was used to assess the marrow signal in the proximal pole of the scaphoid and thus detect the presence of avascular necrosis. The artefact produced by the titanium alloy Herbert screw did not preclude this assessment.
