title: [Potentialities of intravital methods of the evaluation of morphometric pelvic characteristics in adult persons].
abstract: Comparative assessment of posthumous and intravital methods of morphometric study of the pelvis in adult persons was performed in 110 embalmed anatomical specimens and in 81 patient. It was proved statistically, that magnetic resonance tomography and spiral computer tomography (SCT), performed following definite algorithm, appear to be highly informative methods for the evaluation of pelvimetric parameters. They permit to define various osseous landmarks with high precision and to perform the measurements of linear metric pelvic parameters. On the basis of the data obtained, various pelvimetric indices that characterize bony pelvis shape, could be reliably calculated. Moreover, SCT together with shade surface reconstruction in different projections permits to demonstrate visually the 3D shape of the pelvis or its separate fragments and to evaluate the symmetry, presence or absence of bone structural deformations.
