Men	2851 (SD 1040),; 749–4932	2869 (SD 1064),; 878–4986	1205 (SD 11),; 460–1729	1201 (SD 312),; 514–1722	28 (SD 4.5),; 16–33.9	28 (SD 4.4),; 16.2–34
Both	2500 (SD 262),; 749–4932	2519 (SD 987),; 878–4986	1097 (SD 292),; 460–1729	1099 (SD 293),; 514–1722	26.8 (SD 4),; 16–33.9	26.9 (SD 4),; 16.2–34

Average, standard deviation (SD), and range in volume, surface area, and maximal length of the left (L) and right (R) scaphoids are given for woman (first row), men (second row), and for all subjects (third row). SD denotes the standard deviation.
