2 29 Thoracic trauma imaging INTRODUCTION Thoracic injuries and its related complications are the third increasing thus mortality and morbidity in trauma setting, 1,2 Motor Penetrating chest injuries patients. Chest radiography has limitations regarding in computed tomography (MDCT) has been increasingly used 6 iodinated contrast media. (hemothorax, pneumothorax), lungs (pulmonary contusion), coexist in a single patient. MATERIALS AND METHODS contrast media. in a 16-slice MDCT scanner Siemens Somatom Emotion, variable tube current time product (mas). caused by the trauma. RESULTS or lung parenchyma. DISCUSSION MDCT scan. chest trauma. the leading cause in our patients patient(s), respectively.
