The authors take stock of current applications of the scanner in osteoarticular pathology. At first (1978-1983 approximately), only the vertebral column could be studied by this technique. Now, almost all the osteoarticular system is susceptible to study. Established examples are: study of the sacrum, of the traumatized acetabulum, of the femoropatellar apparatus, and measurement of torsion in the lower limbs. New applications are: study of the back of the foot, of the patellar cartilage, of the glenoid cavity, of the bones and soft parts of the hand, three-dimensional reconstructions, scanning radiology. The authors index and analyse these new techniques.
