The use of the Statscan digital X-ray unit in paediatric polytrauma.

Richard D Pitcher1, Jim C H Wilde, Tania S Douglas, Arjan Bastiaan van As.   

Abstract

We present a 3-year review of clinical paediatric experience with the Statscan (Lodox Systems, Johannesburg, South Africa), a low-dose, digital, whole-body, slit-scanning X-ray machine. While focusing on the role of the unit in paediatric polytrauma, insight into its applications in other paediatric settings is provided.
