摘要: Thoracic trauma represents a major diagnostic and therapeutic challenge to both clinicians and radiologists. Accurate assessment and prompt treatment require detailed knowledge of the protean manifestations resulting from thoracic injury as well as thorough familiarity with the increasingly wide range of potentially useful imaging modalities currently available. This chapter outlines the most significant radiologic manifestations of thoracic trauma. Because the clinical and radiographic picture differs widely with damage to specific thoracic structures, each is discussed separately.
