    AbstractThe utility of computed tomography (CT) in evaluation of musculoskeletal disorders was assessed in 55 selected patients. CT provided unique information leading to a correct diagnosis in 45% of cases. In 78% the extent of a lesion was more clearly defined than on conventional imaging procedures, and in the same percentage the CT findings were used to plan optimal therapy. CT was most useful in demonstrating absence of a suspected mass lesion and in defining the full extent of a lesion involving the soft tissues.
