Abstract
The utilization of medical imaging continues to rise, including routine use in major trauma centers. The aims of this study were to estimate the amount of radiation exposure from radiographic imaging and the associated fatal carcinogenesis risk among patients treated for polytrauma at 1 institution.Included were patients who were admitted to our institution with an Injury Severity Score (ISS) of ≥16 during the period of January 2007 to December...
