Amaç: Acil servisten istenen radyolojik görüntüleme incelemelerinin etkinliği ve görüntülemelerdeki patolojilerin değerlendirilmesi amaçlanmıştır.
Gereç ve Yöntem: 01 Temmuz 2019 ile 01 Ağustos 2019 tarihleri arasında hastanemiz Acil Servisi’ne başvuran ve tanısal amaçlı bilgisayarlı tomografi (BT) ve manyetik rezonans görüntüleme (MRG) istenen hastaların sonuçları retrospektif olarak değerlendirildi.
Bulgular: Çalışmaya toplam 2321 BT ve difüzyon MRG görüntülemesi alınmış olup bunların 2012’si BT, 309’u difüzyon MRG görüntüleme idi. BT istemlerinin %23,9’unda, MRG’lerin %19,1’inde patoloji izlendi. En sık BT tipi kranial BT idi (n=1294, %64,3). En sık patoloji abdominopelvik BT’de (n=262,%54,9), en az patoloji omurga BT ‘de (n=11, %2,3) izlendi. BT istemlerinde, 0-10 yaş grubunda patoloji izlenme sıklığı diğer yaş gruplarından daha düşüktü (p<0,001). BT veya MRG’de patoloji izlenen hastaların yaş ortalaması patoloji izlenmeyenlerden daha yüksekti (sırasıyla p<0,001, p=0,039)
Sonuç: Acil serviste, hekimlerin ileri görüntüleme tetkiki isterken uluslararası kabul görmüş kılavuzlardan yararlanmasını öneriyoruz.

Aim: It was aimed to evaluate pathological findings in imaging and the effectiveness of radiological imaging examinations ordered from the emergency department.
Materials and Methods: The results of the patients who applied to the Emergency Service of our hospital between 01, July 2019 and 01, August 2019 and who requested diagnostic computerized tomography (CT) or diffusion magnetic resonance (MRG) were evaluated retrospectively.
Results: A total of 2321 radiological images were included in the study, and of these radiological images, 2012 was CT, and 309 was diffusion MRI. Pathology was observed in 23.9% of CT imaging and 19.1% of MRI. The most common type of CT was cranial CT (n=1294, 64.3%). The most frequent pathologies presence is observed in abdominopelvic CT (n=262, 54.9%), while the least presence of pathology is observed in spine CT (n=11, 2.3%). The mean age of patients with pathology in CT or MRI imaging was significantly higher than patients without pathology (p<0.001, p=0.039, respectively).
Conclusion: We recommend that physicians take advantage of the guidelines when ordering advanced imaging in Emergency Department.
