Abstract

Transverse computed tomography of injured ankles gives additional information compared with conventional roentgen diagnostic techniques. In transverse sections the distal tibio-fibular joint and the suprasyndesmotic region can be examined with regard to incongruence and synostoses. It is also possible to examine the relations between the talus and the malleolar facets in different ankle positions. The technical problems and advantages are discussed.
