Radiology plays a critical role in the evaluation of a traumatized athlete. The goal is to provide as much information as possible to allow timely and appropriate patient care. To select the best "diagnostic pathway," close communication between the clinician and the radiologist is mandatory. This saves time, money, and radiation exposure. Although plain radiographs remain the primary imaging technique for the diagnosis of musculoskeletal trauma, certain injuries can be more fully evaluated by fluoroscopy, arthrography, nuclear medicine scanning, computed tomography (CT), arthrography followed by CT, or magnetic resonance imaging. This article reviews the uses of each imaging technique in the diagnosis of musculoskeletal trauma and its most appropriate application. A discussion of pediatric skeletal trauma is included.
放射学在评估受伤运动员方面起着关键作用。目标是提供尽可能多的信息，以便及时、适当地对患者进行治疗。为了选择最佳的“诊断途径”，临床医生和放射科医生之间的密切沟通是必不可少的。这可以节省时间、金钱和辐射暴露。虽然普通X线片仍然是诊断肌肉骨骼创伤的主要成像技术，但某些损伤可以通过透视、关节造影、核医学扫描、计算机断层扫描（CT）、关节造影后CT或磁共振成像进行更全面的评估。本文回顾了每种成像技术在诊断肌肉骨骼创伤中的用途及其最合适的应用。还包括对儿童骨骼创伤的讨论。
