Wollschlaeger LM, Boos J, Grassmann JP, et al. - This study was sought to correlate cinematic rendering (CR) with volume rendering technique (VRT) images in the preoperative visualization of multifragmentary intraarticular lower extremity fractures. A retrospective study was conducted to include CT datasets of 41 consecutive patients (female: n = 13; male: n = 28; mean age: 52.3 ± 17.9y) with multifragmentary intraarticular lower extremity fractures (calcaneus: n = 16; tibial pilon: n = 19; acetabulum: n = 6). Researchers applied a dedicated workstation to reconstruct CR and VRT images which were examined independently by two experienced board-certified traumatologists trained in special trauma surgery. It was reported that due to higher image quality and higher anatomical accuracy, CR reconstructions are superior with VRT. CR reconstructions were found by traumatologists to increase visualization of lower extremity fractures which should therefore be applied for fracture demonstration during interdisciplinary conferences.
