Summary To diminish the learning curve associated with using swine as models, this book provides practical technical information for the use of swine in biomedical research. It focuses on models produced by surgical and other invasive procedures, supplying the basic principles for performing experiments with an organ or system of interest. This edition contains never-before-published images, new chapters on toxicology and radiobiology, updated sections on anesthesia and perioperative care, and expanded details on anatomy and endoscopy. It also includes an accompanying DVD with 3-D, full-color images
