The viewer will be able to answer the following quesions after viewing the exhibit: 1. Identify injury patterns in complex pelvic fractures. 2. What imaging modalities are appropriate in pelvic trauma? 3. When should dual phase (arterial and PV) or combined single phase "combi" CT protocolling be used? 4. When to perform a cystogram? 5. Who need vessels embolisation and/or IVC Filter insertion? We suggest the adoption of an intelligent, step wise, one stop ,multidisciplinary approach to imaging and intervention in this often multiply injured patient group.  

- Characterising pelvic trauma injury patterns - Dual phase versus Combined Phase CT - Cystograms, urethrograms and delayed phase CTs - Intervention (Embolisation & IVF filters) - A suggested simplified, one-stop pathway
