  • Title: Computed tomography of the bony pelvis: a protocol for multiplanar imaging. Part I: Normal anatomy.
    Author: Howie JL.
    Journal: J Can Assoc Radiol; 1985 Dec; 36(4):278-86. PubMed ID: 4086497.
    Abstract:
    The normal gross and computed tomographic anatomy of the bony pelvis is briefly reviewed, with special reference to the bony masses of greatest concern to a surgeon. Normal transverse computed tomography (CT) images are shown. I describe a unique, comprehensive protocol for multiplanar CT reformation of the osseous pelvis. This algorithm provides "direct-view" images that are considerably more reliable than "mental reformatting" from transverse images alone. The procedure is of particular value in assessing fractures and dislocations occurring separately or together.
