Radiographic staging of Kienböck's disease. Poor reproducibility of Ståhl's and Lichtman's staging systems.
We assessed the precision of 2 widely used radiographic classification systems for patients with Kienböck's disease by repeated staging of 76 radiographic examinations by 3 independent observers. The intraobserver reproducibility was strong but the interobserver reliability was fair or moderate.
