There is a growing understanding and identification of costal cartilage injuries, however, diagnosis of these injuries remains difficult. We present a novel radiodensity based coloring technique, termed the True-Blue technique, to manipulate 3D CT imaging and more accurately diagnose costochondral injuries.
Keywords: 3D CT; costal cartilage; costal margin; costochondral junction; radiodensity.
