MDCT of Tendon Abnormalities Using Volume-Rendered Images

¹ All authors: Department of Radiology, University of Iowa Hospitals and Clinics, 200 Hawkins Dr., Iowa City, IA 52242.

OBJECTIVE. Our objectives were to report tendon abnormalities diagnosed on 3D volume-rendered images from MDCT data and to validate the clinical usefulness of this technique.

CONCLUSION. We present 18 tendon abnormalities from 16 patients that were diagnosed on 3D volume-rendered MDCT images generated by commercially available software. Certain abnormalities such as avulsions, partial tears, and dislocations of tendons are clearly shown by this technique. This technique may prove useful in the evaluation of tendon abnormalities when MRI or sonography cannot be used.
