Diagnostic value of multi planar reconstruction(MPR) and volume rendering(VR) with 16-slice CT in the injury of elbow joint
Objective:To evaluate the clinical value of multi planar reconstruction(MPR)and volume rendering(VR)with 16-slice CT in the injury of elbow joint.Methods:38 cases with elbow trauma underwent 16-slice spiral CT.Images with multiple planar reformation(MPR)and volume rending(VR)were obtained
which were compared with the findings obtained from axial CT images(2DCT) and plain films.Results:MPR imaging combination with VR imaging could demonstrate the details of elbow fracture clearly.66 fractures were diagnosed
and articular surface was involved in 26 cases.The coincident diagnosing rates by 16-slice CT were significantly higher than those by plain film and axial CT.Conclusion:MPR imaging combination with VR imaging of 16-slice CT can comprehensively and accurately show the fracture
dislocation and articular surface of the injured elbow joints
