Imaging of musculoskeletal trauma in three dimensions. An integrated two-dimensional/three-dimensional approach with computed tomography.
Transaxial computed tomographic (CT) data can be used to generate images rapidly in the coronal and sagittal planes (two-dimensional CT) and create simulated three-dimensional images. The techniques and advantages of an integrated two-dimensional/three-dimensional CT approach to musculoskeletal trauma are illustrated and discussed.
