Bladder trauma: multidetector computed tomography cystography

Authors: Charbel Ishak, Nalini Kanth

Published in: Emergency Radiology | Issue 4/2011

Abstract

Multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) cystography is rapidly becoming the most recommended study for evaluation of the bladder for suspected trauma. This article reviews the bladder trauma with emphasis on the application of MDCT cystography to traumatic bladder injuries using a pictorial essay based on images collected in our level I trauma center.
