There are TONS of web-pages with visuals. Some of them are very graphic.

http://www.trauma.org if it is still around, was great. Had pictures of injuries, x-rays, CT scans... and explained what you were looking at usually and often how the injury happened.

Also, as simple as it sounds, http://www.images.google.com and type in what injury you are looking for.

As for instruction, I would suggest you cover various injuries, more so on ones you DON'T see often. Show images of them, and practice dealing with them based on what they are looking at. Walking into a station and having the student ask "what am I looking at for an injury" is.. old. Let's use our technology and show them pictures. :)

good luck

Any good search engine can yield many good photos of these type of injuries. Another resource could be your programs Medical Director. If yours is like ours, he may have a plethra of photos of cases that he was involved in. If not, he may know of other ER docs that may have photo availability. Just a thought. Good luck.
