From the investigation of 180 patients, the preliminary results of tomo-densitometric study ("scanning") of the locomotor system are presented. The technique permits investigation in the transverse spatial plane, which is ignored in conventional radiology. We feel this to be a major advantage in osteo-articular disease, especially for the spine (measurement of the diameter of the canal, analysis of the posterior structures), the sacro-iliac joints, hip joints (easy-measurement of the angles of anteversion) and patello-femoral joints. The densitometric measurement is the second advantage. It allows the estimation of the degree of bony calcification of any bone in the body with great precision. The preliminary study already demonstrates the limitations of the technique (exploration of a single transverse plane, edge effect, and necessity for a new anatomy).
通过对180名患者的调查，本文展示了运动系统体层密度测定研究（“扫描”）的初步结果。该技术能够在横向空间平面进行检查，而这在传统放射学中是被忽略的。我们认为这对于骨关节疾病而言是一个主要优势，特别是对于脊柱（测量椎管直径、分析后部结构）、骶髂关节、髋关节（易于测量前倾角）和髌股关节。密度测定是第二个优势。它能够非常精确地估计身体任何骨骼的骨钙化程度。初步研究已经证明了该技术的局限性（仅探查单个横向平面、边缘效应以及对新解剖结构的需求）。
