Objective To study the clinical diagnostic value of spiral CT in 64 patients with thoracic fractures, provide the basis for clinical practice. Methods April 2014 - May 2016 thoracic fracture patients to hospital for treatment of 53 cases of patients underwent X-ray photography and 64-slice spiral CT diagnosis, two kinds of imaging findings and surgical pathology results were compared and analyzed 64 spiral CT diagnosis of clinical effect in patients with thoracic fractures. Results 53 patients with pathologically diagnosis 10 cases of sternal fracture, 7 cases of scapular fractures, rib fractures 24 cases, 3 cases of sternal fracture, 9 cases of thoracolumbar vertebrae fractures. 64-slice spiral CT diagnosis of sternal fracture, scapula fracture, rib fractures, sternum fractures, thoracolumbar vertebral fractures coincidence rate was significantly higher (P <0.05). Conclusion Thoracic fracture patients over a 64-slice spiral CT diagnostic results, can quickly diagnose thoracic trauma and fractures, and X-ray comparison has its unique advantages, should be widely applied.
