Abstract
Multidetector computed tomography aids in the detection and subsequent classification of skull base and temporal bone fractures. Classifying temporal bone fractures aids in predicting complications and can help guide treatment. In this article, we discuss the detection and classification of temporal bone fractures for injury stratification and review normal anatomy of temporal bone structures, which may mimic fractures.
