CT for Ankle Fractures in Skateboarders

Understanding Skateboarding Injuries

Skateboarders often sustain ankle fractures from falls and mislanded tricks. CT provides detailed bone imaging that reveals fracture lines, displacement, and joint involvement.

Why CT Is Effective

CT detects subtle fractures that X ray may miss.

Guiding Treatment

Accurate imaging supports decisions about casting, bracing, or surgery.

Preventing Chronic Instability

CT helps prevent long term ankle dysfunction in athletes.
