Zusammenfassung
Ziele: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the use of a standardized contrast-enhanced MSCT examination to show sites of active haemorrhage as a guide for conservative, surgical or angiographic treatment in patients sustaining blunt abdominal or pelvic trauma. Methode: Retrospectively, 375 patients (01/2000–08/2003) with initial diagnosis „polytrauma“ underwent a standardized MS-CT examination. MS-CT scans were performed with a Lightspeed QX/i®(GE) using collimation of 5.0mm, pitch 1.5 (High Speed), RI 2, FOV diaphragm – pelvis. In all patients 120ml contrast-agent was injected with a flow-rate of 3,5ml/s.…
