Popis: Computed tomography (CT) with arthrography, a method not requiring anesthesia, has worked well in cruciate ligament damage diagnosis, particularly in the detection of PCL damage and in differentiation between ACL and PCL lesions. Evidence has been produced of its superior accuracy by comparison, in the study of 40 patients, among clinical findings, findings obtained from initial radiography, and diagnostic data produced by CT alone. Reference is also made to false interpretations in the context of clinical examination and CT.
