Analyzing computed tomography Modalities for screening pediatric patients for traumatic blunt cerebrovascular injury.

Background: Optimal screening for BCVI in pediatric trauma patients remains debated. We hypothesized screening with CTAN would decrease the number of duplicate CT scans per patient and increase BCVI detection rate.

Methods: Local BCVI screening institutional protocol changed May 2022 to include Computed Tomography angiography neck (CTAN).
