 PAGE \* MERGEFORMAT 6 Congenital malformations of vertebral X-half CT signs in [Abstract] Objective: To analyze the X ray, CT examination for early identification, early diagnosis and early treatment of congenital vertebral malformations half, preventing spinal deformity, spondylolisthesis, fracture, etc.. Methods: A retrospective analysis of 10 patients with congenital vertebral half patients with abnormal X-ray machine and the common GEPH600 GE HisSpeed NX / I-type spiral CT machine scans the image. Results: X-ray image shows small vertebra, vertebral wedge change, similar to the triangular wedge-like or was like a short half-cone body, shorter lines anteroposterior diameter of vertebral body, vertebral part of the absence of the dense shadow of change was linear, near the vertebral compensatory hypertrophy of the adjacent vertebral disc space is not narrowed. CT scan images can be seen anterior vertebral lesions absence of the line was kind of like dense shadow, the edge of half of vertebral body sclerosis clear, semi-vertebral trabecular bone was normal in sand-like changes, no bone fragments and fracture lines, the normal vertebra adjacent structures due to external force vertebral more unilateral pedicle fracture. Conclusion: X-ray, CT signs in for early diagnosis of congenital malformations semiconic posterosuperior for clinical therapy. [Keywords:] congenital vertebral malformations half; X ray; CT; signs in Congenital vertebral deformity is defined as a half embryo during the formation of vertebral cartilage from the mesenchyme, the two symmetrical center of the cartilage of the development, if not, can cause vertebrae absent, if one is not developed, the formation of half of vertebral body absent; front and two ossification centers, if there is only one development, may be dorsal or ventral hemivertebrae formation. congenital vertebral malformations half uncommon in clinical practice, because clinical and imaging diagnosis of a rare, often m
