In contemporary practice, multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) plays a critical role in the diagnostic evaluation of patients with suspected acute mesenteric and bowel trauma. Although less common than solid organ injuries, it may be seen in up to 5% of blunt trauma patients. Evaluation with CT remains challenging even with improvements in technology. The major imaging signs of mesenteric and bowel trauma and what is known about their applicability in clinical practice are reviewed here. Examples illustrate both the subtlety and variable significance of many of the key signs as well as how these are typically integrated into clinical practice.
