This quiz is the companion to the Directed Reading article "Computed Tomography Imaging of Patients With Polytraumatic Injuries".

Physical trauma is the leading cause of death for individuals younger than 45 years. Polytrauma is trauma involving injury to 2 or more areas of the body. Because of computed tomography’s (CT) ability to provide rapid diagnostic images, it has an essential role in trauma evaluation. This article examines current research findings regarding scanning protocols for patients with polytraumatic injuries and the potential risks and benefits of the protocols. It also reviews the different classifications of trauma that radiologic technologists likely are to encounter in the CT suite.
