    Summary: This book provides an up-to-date, systematic review of all facets of emergency radiology in patients with chest trauma or pain with the aim of equipping the reader with a detailed knowledge of the various radiological patterns, which is essential in order to make a prompt diagnosis under circumstances when time is of critical importance. To this end, the indications, value, and results of the various emergency imaging modalities, including sonography and interventional radiology, are described and illustrated in the full range of blunt chest injuries and nontraumatic chest emergencies. Technological aspects, protocols tailored to the mechanism of injury, and post-processing techniques are also extensively covered. Emergency Radiology of the Chest and Cardiovascular System will be of value to general and interventional radiologists, radiology residents, radiology technicians, and all physicians and surgeons who work in emergency care -- Cover.

    Immunocytochemical techniques are now being used to localize hypothalamic neurosecretory hormones and related peptides in the mammalian brain. The data are probably incomplete, due primarily to false negative results. A number of previous assumptions concerning these pathways have been confirmed while other unexpected results were obtained. As expected, vasopressin and oxytocin and their associated proteins, neurophysins, were found in the magnocellular cell bodies of the hypothalamus and in their axonal projections to the neural lobe of the pituitary. Gonadotropin-releasing hormone (Gn-RH), somatostatin, and thyrotropin-releasing hormone (TRH) were located in what appears to be parvicellular nerve terminals on portal capillaries. Gn-RH has been found in perikarya in the arcuate nucleus, which is considered a source of fibers to the portal capillary bed. An extensive network of cell bodies and fibers in the preoptic area was also found to contain Gn-RH, and others in the periventricular nucleus in the anterior hypothalamus reacted with antiserum to somatostatin. Unexpected was considerable evidence that vasopressin is secreted directly into hypophyseal portal blood. This hormone and its neurophysin were also found in parvicellular neurons in the suprachiasmatic nucleus of rodents. All the hormones were found in fibers in the organum vasculosum of the lamina terminalis and in the posterior pituitary gland.
