Beschreibung
A summary of the radiological tools available for diagnosing traumatized patients, logically linking the mechanics of trauma and the resulting injuries. The book reviews widely accepted trauma classifications, explains relevant examination methods, and summarizes the typical trauma patterns that can be expected with each imaging modality. The authors give decision pathways based on their experience as well as on recent scientific results. The result is a bridge between the disciplines cooperating in hospitals in the treatment of acutely injured patients.
