The hospital radiology information system was searched for terms related to e-scooters between January 1, 2015, and October 31, 2022.

Peak incidence of e-scooter-related injuries was seen in the summer months, after a local scooter sharing system was introduced in October 2020. A total of 149 patients had radiologically diagnosed injuries, with extremity injuries being most frequent (80%). Facial (8%), head\/neck (8%), and thorax\/abdomen (4%) were less common. Radial head fractures were the most common injury (n\u2009=\u200927). Thirteen patients had multiple sites of injury, four of which had both upper limb and facial bone fractures described.<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec>\n                  <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>We report a significant increase in radiological investigations and injuries in the context of e-scooter injuries, particularly since the introduction of an e-scooter sharing scheme.
