Abstract
A new protocol for computed tomography (CT) imaging of the midfoot is described. This imaging technique places the CT cuts parallel to and perpendicular to the talus-first metatarsal axis, as viewed on the lateral CT scout image. For imaging the midfoot, this technique is an improvement over previously described hindfoot or midfoot protocols.
