Aim: This study aimed to evaluate sensitivity of multi planer and 3D of CT image in patients with craniofacial bone fractures. Methodology: Descriptive analytical study was conducted. Patients referred for CT skull examination after trauma and diagnosed with fracture. Result: In this study sample size was (150 patients) and frequency of male was 105 with 70%, female was 45 with 30%. Most bone fracture appear in 3DCT was facial, parietal and temporal with frequency (31),(29),(21) respectively. Most bone fracture appear in axial cut in MPR was facial, parietal and temporal with frequency (30),(28),(22) respectively. Most bone fracture appear in sagittal cut in MPR was parietal, facial and temporal with frequency (32),(29),(11) respectively. Most bone fracture appear in coronal cut in MPR was parietal, facial and temporal with frequency (29),(23),(19) respectively. Conclusion: In evaluation the difference between MPR and 3D images to determining fractures in traumatic patients we found that any depressed fracture appeared in MPR will be clearly appeared in 3DCT,but linear fracture depend on MPR appearance. Recommendations: Specification of bone under study will ease up findings and data acquisition.
