Test questions often include an image or radiograph followed by a vignette of the clinical encounter and a series of questions. Designed to better prepare practitioners for image-intense, computer-based examinations in their respective fields, \u003ci\u003eAtlas of Human Poisoning and Envenoming\u003c\/i\u003e is a visual and written reminder of the ubiquitous sources of toxins and toxoids in the environment and the outcomes of accidental or intentional toxic exposures in humans.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003ci\u003eSecond Edition\u003c\/i\u003e has been restructured with bulleted text, tables, and figures resembling the vignettes that accompany national examinations.
