Radiology Military Field

Radiology is one of the most important branches of military medicine, aimed at diagnosing and treating diseases in military personnel in difficult conditions of war, accompanied by bloodshed and a high degree of injury. Organizing military medical facilities, equipment and treatment for military personnel in the field requires maximum attention and focus. One of the main methods of diagnosis and treatment is x-ray analysis, which allows you to obtain accurate information about the condition of organs and tissues, which in turn helps to determine the best treatment methods.

X-ray examinations are carried out in X-ray rooms or field tents, equipped with the necessary equipment - X-ray diagnostic devices, X-ray installations and special instruments. The device is a device that emits X-rays at the patient and also provides images of internal organs, bones and other tissues using special chart forms. They are created in the form of negatives of light images, which are then transferred to chart paper, which forms the basis for identifying diseases and diagnosing their causes. Thanks to the precision of this procedure, it is possible to accurately diagnose and select the optimal treatment for each organism.

X-ray testing in military settings differs from civilian healthcare due to specific requirements such as time, speed, and difficulty in performing the diagnostic process. It is centered around the following processes: - Assessment of the condition of sick and injured military personnel; - Screening examinations to identify diseases that have not yet manifested themselves clinically; - Carrying out chest radiography for diseases of the heart and respiratory system; - X-ray of bones in case of injuries and wounds to identify hidden fractures and damage. In addition, X-ray examination can be carried out both during combat and directly in field hospitals. This allows you to quickly obtain the necessary data and more effectively treat the wounded. As a result of radiographic examinations at the war site, possible foci of the disease, blood accumulation, detection of internal bleeding, detection of foreign bodies, assessment of the condition and examination of the respiratory and cardiovascular systems are identified. This data allows you to begin emergency treatment, evacuate or transfer those in need of urgent surgical care to doctors, carry out sanitation and restore the health of the victim. X-ray examinations make it possible to identify hidden forms of diseases of internal organs.

Thus, radiology is an important area in military field medicine; it allows you to quickly and accurately assess the health status of military personnel and find measures for their treatment in emergency conditions, when every minute counts. Methods and equipment make it possible to obtain reliable data in a wide range of situations associated with a violation of the state

**Military Field Radiology** is a section of military medicine that develops scientifically based requirements for the organization, technical equipment and methods of conducting X-ray examinations of the injured and sick during combat activities and during evacuation to rear medical institutions. R.V.-P. is also engaged in the development of methods for x-ray imaging of lesions in injuries and serious illnesses, resolves issues of correct tactics for medical triage of the wounded, organizes early x-ray examination of the wounded during the war, determines indications and contraindications for operations and conservative treatment of the wounded during the hospital period, and also develops the correct tactics treatment in the phase of infectious and inflammatory complications of gunshot wounds. X-ray imaging of the lungs is performed mainly in the case of “purulent” pleurisy and in extremely rare cases - when the radiological picture is used to diagnose air bronchopleural fenestrula. A direct photograph of the knee-thoracic spine, anterior and posterior photographs of the chest in the vertical and horizontal positions of the patient, straight and oblique tomos are performed.
