    Summary: This book features 1,500 outstanding radiologic images that depict virtually any condition encountered in an emergency department. Concise text side-by-side with the images details indications, key radiographic findings, and radiographic pearls. Allows readers to see what emergency conditions look like on CT, MRI, ultrasound, and x-ray. Ensures that radiographic signs won't be missed when radiology studies are reviewed in the emergency department.

    Tumor development was observed for 24 months in neonatally thymectomized (nTx) and normal (C3H/HeMs x 129/J)F1 mice. Thymectomy was performed at 3 days of age. Ovarian (29%, with significant difference from the control at P less than 0.001), pituitary (6%, P less than 0.08), and lymphoreticular tumors (16%, P less than 0.05) were observed in higher incidence in nTx females compared with normal controls, resulting in a significant increase in overall tumor incidence (99 tumors in 114 nTx females vs. 37 tumors in 71 normal females, P less than 0.01). No apparent difference in overall tumor incidence was observed between nTx and non-Tx males. Also, there was no higher risk for lung, liver, and mammary tumors in males and females after neonatal thymectomy. The finding that increased tumor incidence was limited to endocrine and lymphoreticular tissues does not support the concept of immune surveillance of carcinogenesis, but rather suggests the importance of tumor-prone conditioning of endocrine or immune systems as a result of neonatal thymectomy.
