CAT scanning of calcaneal fractures with the 30 degree coronal or the transverse plane provides useful information not available on conventional roentgenograms. Joint alignment, displacement of fragments, and the integrity of the medial wall are key factors in deciding whether surgical reconstruction is indicated and what surgical approach to use--medial, lateral, or both. Examples of such information obtained on eight patients with calcaneal fractures is reported comparing CAT scan results to conventional roentgenograms. CAT scans can be used also with the foot immobilized in a cast.
用30度冠状面或横断面进行跟骨骨折的计算机断层扫描（CAT扫描）可提供传统X线片所没有的有用信息。关节对线、骨折块移位以及内侧壁的完整性是决定是否需要进行手术重建以及采用何种手术入路（内侧、外侧或双侧）的关键因素。本文报告了8例跟骨骨折患者的此类信息，将CAT扫描结果与传统X线片进行了比较。CAT扫描也可在足部用石膏固定时使用。
