Focused assessment with sonography in trauma as a triage tool
Journal of Pediatric Surgery, 2010We congratulate Xiang et al [1] for their study describing triage strategies adopted during the postearthquake period with numerous pediatric casualties. We want to highlight the role of the focused assessment with sonography in trauma (FAST). It offers a reliable tool not only for trauma treatment but also during triage that can be used successfully ...

Focused Assessment with Sonography for Trauma in Weightlessness: A Feasibility Study
Journal of the American College of Surgeons, 2003The Focused Assessment with Sonography for Trauma (FAST) examines for fluid in gravitationally dependent regions. There is no prior experience with this technique in weightlessness, such as on the International Space Station, where sonography is currently the only diagnostic imaging tool.A ground-based (1 g) porcine model for sonography was developed ...
