title: [Use of ultrasound in the surgical emergency unit].
abstract: The sonography is very important diagnostic method for the abdominal emergency cases. This diagnostic screening method should be available in the surgical emergency station. Liquid, abscesses, organ ruptures and also many inflammations can be diagnosed with this not invasive method. It is our opinion that a training program in sonography should be available for young surgeons for the judgement of the abdominal emergency cases.
