A complete head and neck examination is critical for accurate clinical diagnosis. A thin-cut axial CT scan with sagittal, coronal, and 3-D reconstruction is important for accurate diagnosis and treatment planning.

Computer-aided applications can reduce the need for open reduction and improve the accuracy of both closed and open repairs.
