AB  - KEY  POINTSImaging  is  a  critical  adjunct  to  the  comprehensive  evaluation  of  the  trauma  patient.Imaging  protocols  specific  to  blunt  and  penetrating  trauma  victims  should  be  clearly  defined  and  operationalized  to  enhance  rapid  imaging  and  patient  throughput.Modern  computed  tomography  (CT)  technology  and  imaging  protocols  allow  for  high-resolution  imaging  of  any  body  part.Advanced  imaging  exams,  such  as  extremity  and  neck  CT  angiography,  can  now  be  integrated  as  a  part  of  the  initial  imaging  evaluation  of  the  trauma  patient.Multiphase  CT  can  provide  important  information  regarding  the  presence  and  character  of  vascular  lesions,  including  active  bleeding  and  solid  organ  pseudoaneurysms.
