Multiplanar reformatting may reduce slice views for CT arthrography
CT scanning, by virtue of its capability to image in the axial plane, has proved to be an effective method of documenting injuries. The modality is particularly adept in complex bony anatomy such as the spine, wrist, elbow, and hips. With high-resolution multislice CT and multiplanar reformatting, it’s possible to achieve adequate visualization of suspected tears with a single axial acquisition.
