SHOW NOTES

DESCRIPTION
Drs Julie and Jeffrey Leonard visit the studio as we consider kids and teens with traumatic neck injuries. Do they all need X-rays? Or could we develop criteria that determine who needs films and who doesn’t? This would save some young patients from radiation exposure while ensuring bony neck injuries are not missed. We hope you can join us!
