Computer-assisted tomography of the knee. 1978

H Pavlov, and R H Freiberger, and M F Deck, and J L Marshall, and J K Morrissey

The potential contributions and limitations of computer-assisted tomography of the knee have been analyzed. The knee was examined in the transaxial, sagittal, semi-sagittal and coronal planes. The positioning for obtaining intra-articular detail is outlined, and the indications are discussed. Delineation of the cruciate ligaments is remarkably clear and clinically applicable. The menisci can be demonstrated, but improvement in spacial resolution and changes in the physical construction of the scanner will be required to permit an adequate clinical evaluation.
