Characterization of Sudanese pelvis Using Computed radiography

Abstract

This study aimed to characterize the Sudanese pelvis using computed radiography and compare the finding with age and BMI . The study was performed on 44 cases in both gender during the period from may 2014 up to august 2014 at Antalya ,al Nelaen center and Ibn al Hytham hospital . The study found that the Distant Between Iliac Crests was ±3.8, ASIS was ±3.9, Brim Length was ±2.4 , Brim Width was ±1.7, Distant Between Acetabulum was ±3.0 and Pubic Angle was ±19.7 . The study also revealed a linear relation between age and BMI .A significance different between the two genders were noticed . computed radiography is a good method for characterizing the pelvis . Sudanese pelvis is differ from what was mention in previous study.
