Computed quantification of the extent of pleuropulmonary trauma by CT and comparison with conventional chest x-ray--Impact on therapy and correlation with mechanical ventilation support and clinical outcome. ⋯ CT allows rapid classification and quantification of pulmonary lesions after thoracic trauma and provides higher sensitivity and reliability. Because of the great correlation with the extent of artificial respiration in respect of duration and pressure, prognosis of the individual patient, as well as a differential therapy, appear possible.

The purpose of this study was to compare HASTE-sequence with T2-weighted TSE-sequence in the detection of cervical myelopathy and cervical spinal stenosis in kinematic MRI. ⋯ T2-TSE-sequence is superior to HASTE-sequence in the delineation of anatomical structures of the cervical spine, the grading of cervical spinal stenosis and the evaluation of cervical myelopathy.
