Imaging capabilities of fractures for a light maneuver medical team: A case report and review of current literature.

This case study highlights the critical need for radiographic imaging in the military medical field, especially for diagnosing orthopedic injuries. The absence of on-site X-ray equipment can lead to patient transport, resource expenditure, and misdiagnosis. This study presents a practical solution through the use of lightweight and portable X-ray systems, as employed by explosive ordnance disposal teams, which not only reduce transport time and resources but also offer high-quality imaging with low radiation risk.
