Twenty-three consecutive CT examinations in cases of chronic osteomyelitis were analyzed and compared to conventional radiologic and surgical findings and histologic examinations of samples taken specifically for the purpose. CT is the most reliable method of detecting sequesters. A detailed structural analysis of the bone in regard to old bone portions and osteomyelitic osteoneogenesis is possible, but osteonecrosis cannot be detected with certainty. Abscesses and fistulae can be demonstrated with a high degree of reliability, using contrast medium if necessary. CT influences the authors' decisions concerning planned revisional surgery in chronic osteomyelitis cases more than any other examination method. It is used in all osteomyelitis diagnoses following removal of the metal.
