  • Title: Coronal computed tomography of the skull and brain in infants and children. Part II. Clinical value.
    Author: Byrd SE, Harwood-Nash DC, Barry JF, Fitz CR, Boldt DW.
    Journal: Radiology; 1977 Sep; 124(3):710-4. PubMed ID: 887764.
    Abstract:
    Coronal computed tomography is an important adjunct to the routine axial view in the evaluation of lesions of the skull and brain in infants and children. Of 400 axial scans performed over a four-mounth period, 50 were supplemented by coronal scans. Intracranial or cranial abnormalities were present in 39 (78%). Although the disadvantages of the coronal projection make it impractical as the only modality, when used as an adjunct to the axial view certain lesions of the skull and brain are diagnosed and delineated better.
