Overview
Computed tomography (CT) with two-dimensional reconstruction in the sagittal and coronal planes provides more detailed information than radiographs. CT is important to identify articular depression and comminution. CT also helps in fracture fragment orientation and surgical planning.
CT scan
- Computed tomography (CT) with two-dimensional reconstruction in the sagittal and coronal planes provides more detailed information than radiographs.[1][2][1][3]
- CT confirms x ray findings.
- CT is important to identify articular depression and comminution.
- Presence of lipohemarthrosis indicates an occult fracture.
- In addition, CT also helps in fracture fragment orientation and surgical planning.
