Hyperosmolar coma as etiological factor in the CNS radiation syndrome of rats.
Supralethal dose of whole-body or trunk but not head-irradiation in rats induced hyperosmolar coma accompanied by hypernatremia and hyperkalemia. This clinical entity has presented the symptoms of the CNS radiation syndrome with a characteristic short survival time.

Increased attenuation value in a hydropic gallbladder.
A case is presented in which the presence of sludge in a hydropic gallbladder altered both the usual sonographic and computed tomographic appearance of the gallbladder.

Computed tomography of a carotid body tumor.
A patient with a carotid body tumor was evaluated by computed tomography. The tumor demonstrated an enhanced rim and a central lower density. This corresponds to the "eggshell" appearance described angiographically in carotid body tumors.

Non-invasive evaluation of thoracic aneurysms.
Sixty-six patients with possible abnormalities of the thoracic aorta were examined by CT and the data compared with standard chest radiographs, angiography and, in most, with the surgical findings. Using contrast enhancement computed tomography was able to evaluate and differentiate between a tortuous aorta, an atherosclerotic aneurysm, and aortic dissection and extra-aortic masses. Distinguishing pathological features are discussed. In aortic dissections angiography may be necessary to delineate the site of the intimal tear. Long term follow-up of aortic dissections, especially Type III, is best done by CT. Aneurysmal rupture or leakage, as well as extension into the abdominal aorta, can easily be ascertained by this method.
