Popis: |
Traumatic spinal fractures typically occur in younger patients generally following a high-energy motor vehicle accidents or falls. In a poly-traumatized patient, the precise mechanism of a complex spinal injury may be difficult to elicit, but recognition of a fracture pattern may lead the radiologist to infer the likelihood of soft tissue and/or neurological injuries and/or instability. The advent of multi-detector CT has allowed a rapid assessment of the spine and to expedite management and reduce patient morbidity. |
