The utility of computed tomography (CT) in evaluation of musculoskeletal disorders was assessed in 55 selected patients. CT provided unique information leading to a correct diagnosis in 45% of cases. In 78% the extent of a lesion was more clearly defined than on conventional imaging procedures, and in the same percentage the CT findings were used to plan optimal therapy. CT was most useful in demonstrating absence of a suspected mass lesion and in defining the full extent of a lesion involving the soft tissues.
对55例选定患者评估了计算机断层扫描（CT）在肌肉骨骼疾病评估中的效用。CT提供了独特信息，在45%的病例中促成了正确诊断。在78%的病例中，病变范围比传统成像检查更清晰，且在相同比例的病例中，CT检查结果被用于制定最佳治疗方案。CT在显示疑似肿块病变不存在以及确定累及软组织的病变全貌方面最有用。
