Emergency Radiology > Emergency Medicine

Emergency Radiology was developed to teach emergency radiology from the vantage point of the clinical emergency physician. The book is intended to serve as an instructional guide for the emergency medicine resident, practicing clinician, and medical student, as well as a reference text in the busy emergency department. Most chapters follow a similar format. The chapters begin with a discussion on clinical decision making -- reviewing the indications for radiographic studies. This is followed by a discussion of anatomy and physiology, including the biomechanics needed to understand radiographic patterns of injury. The radiographic technique section illustrates the standard and supplementary radiographic views for each anatomical region and describes how these views are obtained. The core section of each chapter is entitled radiographic analysis. In this section, we present a step-by-step approach to interpreting the radiographs. This information is presented in a table and in drawings of each standard radiographic view. Common abnormalities reviews those injuries and pathologic conditions that are most frequently encountered in the emergency department, as well as those that have substantial associated morbidity. Errors in interpretation focuses attention on injuries that are easily missed. Common variants discusses anatomical variants such as accessory bones that can cause difficulty in radiographic interpretation. The controversies section addresses issues that are currently being debated or represent evolving practice patterns in emergency medicine.
Highlighting the text are illustrations and tables that reinforce key points. A figure appearing in most chapters focuses attention on sites prone to injury and easily missed injuries. These figures provide rapid visual cues to radiograph interpretation. A corresponding table summarizes a systematic way to review the radiographs. Each standard radiographic view is shown with an accompanying line drawing that details the radiographic anatomy. An additional table describes all of the standard and supplementary views. Finally, examples of both obvious and subtle radiographic abnormalities are illustrated.
