| Popis: | A review is presented of the radiographs that should be taken of the spine of a severely injured spinal trauma patient within the first 24 h. The patient will probably present to a small local hospital or health care centre; the capacities and skills of such a small radiological unit are discussed. Consideration is then given to the radiological procedures which a specialized trauma centre should undertake after transfer of the patients. The main emphasis of the review is on plain films. |
