There is a variety of methods to aid in the diagnosis of fractures requiring operative treatment. A computer program that produces pseudo-three-dimensional (3D) images from sets of axial computed tomograms is used for examining fractures in areas of complex skeletal anatomy. The resulting reconstructions, representing the surface in a form similar to that of anatomic preparations, can facilitate the process of diagnosis. They are also valuable for planning operations. The 3D information can be used to define the size, shape, and location of the various fracture types. We have used the technique in more than 500 patients with injuries to the skull, spine, acetabulum, sternoclavicular joint, shoulder, knee, and calcaneus and are able to demonstrate the benefit of special investigation protocols.
有多种方法可辅助诊断需要手术治疗的骨折。一种能根据轴向计算机断层扫描图像集生成伪三维（3D）图像的计算机程序，用于检查复杂骨骼解剖区域的骨折。由此产生的重建图像，以类似于解剖标本的形式呈现表面，可促进诊断过程。它们对手术规划也很有价值。3D信息可用于确定各种骨折类型的大小、形状和位置。我们已将该技术应用于500多名颅骨、脊柱、髋臼、胸锁关节、肩部、膝盖和跟骨受伤的患者，并能够证明特殊检查方案的益处。
