Diagnostic value of 62-slice spiral CT and its post-processing techniques for tibial plateau fracture and its classification
To investigate the diagnostic value of 62-slice spiral CT and its post-processing techniques for tibial plateau fracture (TPF) and its influence on treatment regimens selection.
Methods
2
A total of 173 TPF patients diagnosed and treated in our hospital from January 2021 to December 2022 were included, and the diagnostic accuracy, classification diagostic accuracy and fracture collapse degree accuracy of X-ray and CT scans were compared, with surgical and pathological diagnosis as the gold standard.
Results
2
CT and its post-processing technique can more clearly show the direction of fracture line, the displacement direction of fracture fragments and the collapse degree of articular surface than X-ray.The fracture morphology of 171 patients seen during the operation was consistent with CT and its post-processing images.The diagnostic accuracy of X-ray for TPF was 93.64%, which was lower than that of CT and its post-processing techniques (98.84%), and the difference was statistically significant (
χ
2
=6.474,
P
=0.011).The overall accuracy of X-ray in evaluating the degree of fracture collapse was significantly lower than that of CT 3D reconstruction (65.32%
vs
.90.75%;
χ
2
=32.644,
P
<
0.001).The total accuracy of CT and its post-processing techniques for TPF Schatzker classification (97.69%) was higher than that of X-ray (88.44%),and the difference was statistically significant (
χ
2
=11.462,
P
=0.001).Different CT reconstruction models had statistically significant difference on the total accuracy of TPF Schatzker classification diagnosis (
χ
2
=40.647,
P
<
0.001),and the diagnosis accuracy of volume reconstruction was the highest (96.53%).
Conclusion
2
The application of CT and its post-processing techniques can effectively evaluate TPF, articular surface collapse and fracture classification, and provide imaging reference for clinical decision-making.
