Abstract

In cardiopulmonary resuscitation, computed tomography (CT) imaging could be of decisive importance to therapeutic strategy making but is yet unavailable because of incompatibility of CT scanning and manual chest compressions. In this report, we describe a case in which CT scanning was performed on a trauma victim during resuscitation with a mechanical chest compression device. The resulting images contributed to the decision-making process without interfering with the ongoing resuscitation
