Abdominal trauma continues to be a serious public health pathological state worldwide and it is related to high morbidity and mortality in every country.The challenge in the imaging of abdominal trauma is to accurately identify injuries that require early medical attention and at the same time avoid unnecessary surgical interventions.This has been made possible by the invention of imaging techniques like ultrasonography (USG), computed tomography (CT) scan, and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) which shows the site and extent of the injury accurately. The Multi-Detector Computed Tomography (MDCT) is a major advancement in the evaluation of patients with abdominal trauma by offering decreased scanning time, increased resolution and reduced motion artifacts. The aim of the present study was to assess the role of Multidetector computed tomography (M.D.C.T) in the evaluation of patients with acute and chronic abdominal trauma or polytrauma. At the outset of the study, a detailed history was taken, general physical examination and relevant laboratory examination findings were recorded
