Article Summary

Summary

Using rabbit thoracic and abdominal organs as experimental models, this study examines injury mechanisms during deceleration impacts. High-speed imaging is used to compare organ motion and injury with thoracic deformation. The findings support an important role for inertial impact between organs and the chest wall and question assessments based only on thoracic compression.
