Article Synopsis
- The study evaluated the correlation between urinary bladder volume (UBV) and blood alcohol concentration (BAC) in emergency trauma patients, using 3D-CT scans.
- The research involved 831 whole-body CT scans, with both manual and semi-automated methods used for bladder volumetry, while analyzing injury mechanisms, demographics, and lab results.
- Results indicated that manual volumetry was more specific but semi-automated methods are still reliable and that higher UBV can indicate potential alcohol intoxication, with the creatinine quotient providing a better detection rate.
