Abstract:
The authors evaluate the accuracy of a new CT pelvimetry technique that allows faster and low dose acquisition, and provides an axial view of the true conjugate as well as a 3D view of the maternal pelvis. Made possible by the availability of MDCT, this new technique may be a good alternative to standard CT pelvimetry even if MR pelvimetry still appears as the gold standard.

Computed Tomography
The technique was invented in the 1970s and is based on the principle that as X-rays pass through the body, they are absorbed or reflected at different levels. In the technique, a patient lies on a motorized platform while a computerized axial tomography (CAT) scanner rotates...
