    Notes: Abstract Background: Accurate noninvasive measurement of the volume of the liver has many potential clinical applications and is an important element in the preoperative evaluation of the liver transplant recipient. Helical (or spiral) computed tomography (CT) has theoretical advantages over conventional CT in this application because the entire liver can be imaged in a single breath-hold, limiting inaccuracies related to patient motion and respiratory variation. Methods: We compared liver volumes measured by conventional CT and helical CT in 22 patients undergoing preoperative evaluation for liver transplantation. Results: The mean volume for helical CT is 1328 ml (SD 405) and conventional CT is 1323 ml (SD 417). Conclusions: We found no significant difference between the helical CT and conventional CT volumes for each patient.

    Variation in tibial torsion (1994)

    Notes: A skeletal collection from the African country of Sudan was examined to determine if torsion of the tibia in an African population varies from established norms for European, Asian, and American populations. A large variation in tibial torsion was observed. There was a distinct limb asymmetry with more torsion on the right than left. No association of tibial torsion with gender was identified. A small but appreciable increase in average torsion (7°) was identified when this population was compared with previously reported populations. This study documents a variation in tibial torsion not appreciated in earlier studies. © 1994 Wiley-Liss, Inc.
