Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the clinical applied value of multiplanar reconstruction(MPR) and three dimensional reconstruction(3D) with spiral CT in the fractures of the elbow joint.Methods Multi-slice helical CT scanning was performed in 24 cases with elbow joint injure,MPR and 3D image reconstruction of elbow joints were carried out.Results 42 fractures and 4 dislocations of elbow joints in 22 cases were found on the images of MPR and 3D,29 fractures were displayed on 2D CT,39 fractures were found on MPR and 35 fractures were viewed on 3D.Conclusion MPR is better than 3D in finding the small fractures and in viewing damage inside the bone of elbow joint,however 3D is better than MPR in showing the location,range,shift of fractures.MPR and 3D with spiral CT have important values in diagnosis of elbow joint fractures.
