Template:Muscular hematoma - choice of modality
Revision as of 14:07, 14 March 2019 by Mikael Häggström (talk | contribs) (→Choice of modality: +Follow-up)
Choice of modality
- Ultrasonography of muscular hematoma is generally the initial choice in younger patients to confirm a strongly suspected hematoma.
- CT of muscular hematoma is generally the initial choice in acute abdominal pain. For follow-up of a known muscular hematoma, it is sufficient to perform CT without IV contrast.[notes 1]
- In suspected bone fracture, X-ray of fractures is generally the initial choice.
