Radiology of terror injuries: the American University of Beirut Medical Center experience.

Abstract:

OBJECTIVE:This study aimed to report our experience with regard to imaging of mass casualty incidents (MCIs). SUBJECTS AND METHODS:Following a bomb attack, 150 casualties were referred to our hospital. Radiographs and nonenhanced CT scans were performed in 28 individuals. RESULTS:Major injuries were seen in 12 individuals, which were limited only to the brain (n=2), facial bones (n=2), and extremities and soft tissues (n=8). CONCLUSION:In MCIs, imaging should be fast, in order to help identify major injuries that need immediate management and to help in the triage of injured individuals.
