Bowel injury

Bowel injury:
Look for

1-Free fluid in absence of solid organ injury (suspect bowel injury).

2-Bowel wall thickening if it is focal it could suspects bowel injury and if it is diffuse it suspects shock bowel and or volume overload.

3-Pneumoperitoneum (it is specific but not sensitive).

4-Wall defect and or contrast material leak (high specific but uncommon and insensitive).
