Fusion Navigation in Evaluation of Musculo-Skeletal System
Abstract
Diagnostic capabilities of a new hybrid computer technology named Fusion in musculo-skeletal applications which provides a combined use of X-ray, scintigraphy, CT, PET, MRI with US are discussed in the issue. Questions of combined use of Fusion with Doppler, contrast enhancement and elastography are reviewed. Advantages of the Fusion technology in examination of different parts of musculo-skeletal system are clearly showed. Diagnostic capabilities of Fusion technology using US-device My Lab Class C (ESAOTE) with a special virtual navigator module was studied for hip, knee, shoulder joints. Combination of X-ray, MSCT and MRI images before planning surgery and after, and in rehabilitation period were performed in 16 patients. Possibilities of Fusion technology in evaluation of different joint’s elements was carefully illustrated.
