Does anyone have good journal articles regarding c-spine clearance? The
chief of our Radiology department is asking our ER MD's to start doing
5-view C-spine vs. our 3-view C-spine xrays. I am looking for articles that
speaks to these differences. We have had limited if any missed injuries
documented. Thank you to all for your assistance.
