RADIOLOGIC EVALUATION OF SPINAL TRAUMA

We analyzed the results of radiation treatment of 728 patients with acute spinal and spinal cord traumas who were treated in Omsk Municipal Clinical Emergency Hospital N1 during 2008—2011 years. The traumas were mainly caused, by catatrauma (68,7 %), car accidents (22,3 %) and the others (9 %). Abou...

Description
Summary:We analyzed the results of radiation treatment of 728 patients with acute spinal and spinal cord traumas who were treated in Omsk Municipal Clinical Emergency Hospital N1 during 2008—2011 years. The traumas were mainly caused, by catatrauma (68,7 %), car accidents (22,3 %) and the others (9 %). About 46,2 % of cases of spinal traumas were multifocal. Diagnostic algorithm, of instrumental researches in acute period, of spinal trauma was carried out in the following sequence: spondylograms in two projections (77 %), spondylograms in special positions (3 %), multispiral computer tomography (75 %) and MRI (22 %). MCT was a primary method of diagnostic of spinal fractures in patients with polytrauma and high probability of vertebral injury, without preliminary X-ray.
