Title: The application of spiral CT reconstruction in traumatic skull and brain
Abstract: Objective:To evaluate the diagnostic accuracy and clinical values of spiral CT reconstruction in traumatic skull and brain.Methods:Fifteen cases of patients with trauma were examined by spiral CT and then the source images were processed with three dimensional shaded surface display (SSD),and two dimensional MPR reconstruction on workstation.Results:The maximum intensity projection(MIP) was superior to the other reconstruction techniques in the demonstration of the fractures.The extent of epidural hematoma and relationship between hematoma and brain gyrus and sulcus were clearly documented by the reconstructed images using brain SSD software.Conclusion:The spiral CT reconstruction techniques can provide more valuable information,and facilitate the excellent performance of high ranked spiral CT.
