ABSTRACT

Reviewing and reporting CT images is now undoubtedly best performed on the console, on a workstation where window levels and widths may be readily adjusted, and where multiplanar reconstructions [MPR) and other manipulations can be used to help clarify anatomical questions, or on a PACS terminal. This has been evolving as best practice for some time both as a result of the increasing amount of information [potentially numbers of images) to be processed and because of the increasing power and sophistication of workstations. The use in routine reporting of at least the axial, coronal and sagittal MPRs is strongly recommended.
