AbstractTrauma is a significant cause of morbidity and mortality in children and radiological investigations are almost always used in its management. This article reviews the radiological findings in thoracic trauma, in relation to their effects on lung parenchyma, the airways, the pleura, the great vessels, the diaphragms and the bony skeleton. Particular emphasis is given to plain radiographical and computed tomography findings, since these are the commonest imaging modalities used.Copyright 2002 Elsevier Science Ltd.
