injury patterns
It looks as though this is a clinical term referring to the range of different kinds of injuries incurred by casulaties. Does that fit your context? If so, "injury patterns" occurs in one text I saw, and is obviously a better translation that "injury panorama".

Or "injury pattern" of course, if the singular fits your context better.

injury landscape
Just looking on Google, I suspect that this phrase is a translation to Swedish of the English term 'injury landscape'.
For example: "The use of IEDs has led to an injury landscape different from that in prior US wars." from the US government's National Library of Medicine: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/books/NBK202239/

Hi Charles. I think you made the wrong choice here. Like you said, landscape is the correct term. It's not a positive term, any more than pattern is a positive term. You might be thinking of a 'beautiful, natural landscape', but it could just as easily be a 'desolate, barren landscape' :-)

Note from asker:
| thanks Diarmuid, but "landscape" -- though correct, seems contextually odd in the context of injuries. landscape is supposed to be positive thing. ;=- |
| Thanks Diarmuid for your comment, and additional comment. Much appreciated. I am not really sure, but I take your point. And thinking about it, landscape is broader than patterns. |
