Abstract:
Ultrasound can supply information of the position, size, displacement of fracture end and edema or hematoma of surrounding tissue through multi-directional scanning, which has been used in diagnosis of bone fractures, especially in some occult fractures in ribs, metacarpals, cartilages, nasal bones and so on. The application and development of ultrasound in diagnosis of bone fractures were reviewed in this article.
