Multislice CT (MSCT) has greatly enhanced the performance of CT scanners and has vastly improved imaging of musculoskeletal trauma. Fast, high resolution scanning is now possible. In our institution, MSCT is an essential part of the imaging of the traumatized patient. The advantages of volume imaging, such as multiplanar reconstructions (MPRs) with near isotropic viewing, three-dimensional imaging and thick slice (wedge) MPRs (mimicking conventional radiographs), enable more accurate assessment of complex anatomical areas such as the spine, pelvis and foot. We discuss the general principles of scanning for musculoskeletal trauma and describe our experience of MSCT of the traumatized spine, pelvis and foot.
