Brief Summary

• Trauma is a major cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Despite the advent of specialized trauma centers the outcome of patients who sustain major trauma remains disappointing. Plain radiography and more advanced imaging techniques such as ultrasound, computerised tomography (CT) and angiography, have a major role to play in the early decision making and subsequent management of patients who sustain polytrauma. This article discusses the choice of emergency imaging techniques available in chest trauma for clinicians and radiologists; their evaluation and some of the common pitfalls that may lead to errors of interpretation.

Conditions

Eligibility Criteria

• Sex: all
• Healthy Volunteers: Yes
• Age Groups: Child (0-17), Adult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)
• Sampling Method: Non-Probability Sample

Study Population

Information collected by this study may contribute to the care of patients in the future who have the same lesions as those that participate in this study. The information may also improve the future management of study participants. On the other hand patients will benefit from the clinical and radiological follow up postoperatively. There are no known risks associated with participation in this study. Patients' treatment and follow up will not be altered by any means

You may qualify if:

• chest trauma 2. recent trauma: presented within48 h

You may not qualify if:

• Old trauma more than 48h 2-Pt transferred urgently to operating room
