Computed tomography of the anterior cruciate ligament
Clinical Radiology
|July 1, 1984
Abstract:
The anterior cruciate ligaments of 20 patients with suspected pathology in one ligament were studied by thin-section computed tomography (CT) and reformating techniques. In 19 patients, the suspect anterior cruciate ligament was abnormal and this was confirmed by subsequent arthroscopy or arthrotomy in thirteen. Thin-section CT and reformatting techniques provide a useful means of non-invasively imaging the anterior cruciate ligament.
