Abstract
Tropical Gastroenterology 158 suggest the diagnosis of SSR. Focused assessment sonography in trauma (FAST) using ultrasound is used frequently in an emergency for trauma patients to see the presence of fluid in the peritoneal cavity. FAST is regarded as the best non-invasive radiological modality for assessing the peritoneal cavity in unstable patients. It is an operator-dependent modality and cannot identify the source of bleed and type of fluid in the peritoneal cavity.3 CT scan is the gold standard to diagnose the source of bleed as well as the extent of injury to the organ and other associated injuries.6
