Résumé
Radiology is of enormous importance for orthopedic and trauma surgeons. There are almost no fields or subspecialties where adequate imagining is not a fundamental part of the diagnostic workup or therapy, especially in the treatment of fractures. The aim of this article is to describe fundamental concepts in the treatment of fractures with regard to the various skeletal regions and implants, including their possibilities and limitations. The article is mainly based on principles given by the AO (Arbeitsgemeinschaft für Osteosynthesefragen) Foundation in combination with our own experience related to shaft, close to joint, and joint fractures. Basic concepts used in the surgical treatment of shaft, close to joints, and joint fractures as well as commonly used implants with regard to imaging required in this context without claiming to be exhaustive are reviewed. To improve outcome quality, close collaboration and direct communication between radiologists and orthopedic and trauma surgeons are required.

RESULTS AND CONCLUSION
CONCLUSIONS
Basic concepts used in the surgical treatment of shaft, close to joints, and joint fractures as well as commonly used implants with regard to imaging required in this context without claiming to be exhaustive are reviewed. To improve outcome quality, close collaboration and direct communication between radiologists and orthopedic and trauma surgeons are required.
