CT angiography signs of lower extremity vascular trauma.
OBJECTIVE
Specific CT angiography (CTA) signs of vascular injury can be readily detected, and additional information regarding osseous and soft-tissue injuries can also be routinely obtained. In this article, we illustrate the important CTA signs of lower extremity vascular injury.


CONCLUSIONS
CTA is efficient and accurate in the evaluation of clinically significant lower extremity arterial injuries after trauma.
