SPIRAL CT SCAN OF THE MYOSITIS OSSIFICANS TRAUMATICA
Abstract
A demonstration of a case of myositis ossificans traumatica at right thigh by spiral CT scan was shown. The calcification at the muscle had a lacy pattern of peripheral calcification, more lucent center and there was a separation zone between the lesion and the adjacent bone. The lesion was 5 weeks old in a 9-year-old girl.
