Abdominal vascular trauma: solid organs and mesentery
Elizabeth Dick, London / United Kingdom
1. To develop a visual checklist for active bleeding in the solid organs and mesentery.
2. To understand the value of communicating subtle signs of mesenteric trauma to the clinical team so they can be alert to the development of bowel injury.
3. To recognise different patterns of arterial and venous bleeding, including contained bleeding.

Pelvic vascular trauma
Sameer Bhimjibhai Raniga, Muscat / Oman
1. To understand and optimise different CT trauma protocols to detect, describe and discriminate different types of pelvic vascular injuries on a polytrauma PAN-CT.
2. To utilise a systematic search pattern to identify different pelvic vascular injuries without overcalling or missing important injuries.
3. To recognise the role of CT in triaging and managing patients, determining whether they should be referred to interventional radiology (IR) or the operating room (OR) pathway.
