Abstract:
Objective To explore the value of multi-model reconstruction of 16-slice spiral CT in diagnosis of rib fractures.Methods 16-slice spiral CT volumetric scanning was performed in 72 patients with rib fracture proved by clinical,all images were reconstructed in thin slice and transferred into ADW4.1 workstation.Images such as multiplanar reconstruction(MPR),maximum intensity projection(MIP)and volume rendering(VR)were performed,then the reconstructed images of injured ribs were observed and analyzed by two experienced radiologists and compared with radiographs.Results In 72 cases,there were 217 rib fracture and 7 costal cartilage fracture depicted on MSCT.The location and number of fracture and displacement of fracture could be showed clearly on images of multi-model reconstruction.VR images were betten in demonstration of the anatomical structure,MPR images were better to show the minor lesion of rib fracture,MIP was the best imaging method in detecting the costal cartilage fracture,while axial image was the basic CT scanning section.Radiographs revealed 169 rib fractures but no costal cartilage fracture.Conclusion 16-slice spiral CT of multi-model reconstruction is superior to radiography in diagnosis of rib fracture and costal cartilage fracture.But the combinalion of various reconstruction techniques should be acquired.
