As emerging cases of medical emergency (trauma or non-trauma) become tremendous burden for patient, especially in healthcare practice, radiology serves as critical part in both diagnosis and final management decision due to its various imaging modalities provided. Serious permanent complication and multi-organ involvement for such time-sensitive conditions could be getting worse in any minute, or even lead to death, if left maltreated. Therefore, the need for skilled and knowledgeable doctors in emergency setting is beyond crucial. As one of the developing countries in the world, heterogenous emergency cases are easily found in daily basis here in Indonesia. The frequency for basic and initial imaging modality usage, such as x-ray and ultrasound, is still high. Not to mention many cases that would be still be handled by general physicians, and not only radiologist and any specialist doctors.
