2DCT measurements tend to underestimate the initial and residual displacement in complex acetabular fractures. A 3DCT analysis of these injuries was developed to overcome this and should be used in addition to the Judet/Letournel and AO/OTA classification systems, in order to provide an observer independent quantifiable fracture description and accurate assessment of the fracture reduction.
