description This article aims to give an overview of some of the common conditions seen in emergency general surgery and the recommended choice of imaging. For junior doctors, choosing the correct imaging modality can be difficult so we aim to provide a summary of the evidence behind radiology for emergency general surgery. Four of the most important acute surgical conditions were chosen, alongside abdominal aortic aneurysm. A literature search was carried out to review the most up-to-date evidence regarding imaging choices. Cases were chosen from everyday practice to put the imaging into context. This article gives an overview of the most common imaging modalities used in emergency general surgery. It can be used by medical students and junior doctors to help understand the reasoning behind imaging choices on the acute surgical take.
