Abstract:
Objective To compare the differences between three kinds of reconstruction methods of the multi-planar spiral CT in diagnosing fractures of skull base , in order to appraise fractures of skull base in forensic medical examinations. Method 40 cases with suspicious basio-cranial fractures after cranio-cerebral trauma were examined by multi-planar spiral CT scanning. The data were imported into workstation for ax-ial scanning, multi-planar reconstruction (MPR) and 3D-reconstruction (using SSD). Results In 24 cases with anterior fossa fractures, 9 cases were found by axial scanning, 24 cases by MPR, 9 by SSD. The comparison between these groups showed significant statistical difference (P
