title: [High-resolution computed tomography of femur head necrosis].
abstract: High resolution CT with reconstruction in the sagittal and coronal planes plays a central role in the diagnosis of necrosis of the femoral head. It provides the diagnostician and surgeon with a means for early diagnosis and for determining the extent and localisation of the bone changes; this assists in planning treatment. Additional diagnostic imaging methods are only necessary in isolated cases.
