Abstract:
Objective To discuss the diagnostic value of multi-slice spiral CT 2D and 3D reconstruction for atlantoaxial occult fracture.Methods Multi-slice spiral CT scans were performed in 38 patients who were suspected of fracture but were not detected with radiography,and the images were post-processed with Vitrea workstation(including MPR,MIP,VR and SSD).The images were observed by two experienced radiologists.Results Of 38 cases,28 cases were detected having small fractures with spiral CT reconstruction.Conclusion Multi-slice spiral CT 2D and 3D reconstructions are of important value in diagnosing atlantoaxial occult fracture.
