Popis: Spiral computed tomography (SCT) in combination with SCT angiography with the rapidity and low-invasiveness of the study yields necessary information and minimizes the number of diagnostic measures in severely wounded patients, by substantially reducing the preoperative period of their examination. The assessment of findings, the processing of data, and the construction of additional repairs do not require the presence of the patient and may be made in later periods. If required, repeated studies make it possible to evaluate the time course of postoperative changes, to identify complications of wound disease at the right time, and to optimize surgical treatment policy. Thus, SCT for fighting gunshot abdominal injury may significantly amplify and, in many cases, substantiate for the existing radiation diagnostic techniques.
