Dr. Thrall graduated from the Purdue University Veterinary School in 1969 and completed Master of Science and Doctor of Philosophy degrees at Colorado State University in 1971 and 1974, respectively. He held faculty positions at the University of Georgia and the University of Pennsylvania before spending 30 years on the faculty of the College of Veterinary Medicine of North Carolina State University. Following nearly two-years on the faculty of Ross University School of Veterinary Medicine, he returned to North Carolina State University where he holds a part time faculty appointment as Clinical Professor. Dr. Thrall is board certified by the American College of Veterinary Radiology in both diagnostic radiology and radiation oncology. Dr. Thrall's primary imaging interests are CT and MRI, particularly relating to tumor morphology and tumor physiology

"This title remains the definitive textbook of veterinary radiology...covers normal and abnormal imaging anatomy of dogs, cats, and horses,... primarily focuses on radiograph interpretation, although it includes ultrasound, CT, and MRI findings as appropriate. The purpose is to teach radiographic interpretation centered around description using roentgen signs.... achieves this goal with direct and succinct text combined with illustrative and highly annotated examples of imaging findings throughout…. organized as both a textbook for students and as a reference guide for general and specialty practitioners. The book’s biggest strength is its images, as it should be for a radiology book. These are generally well annotated, allowing for easy identification of important structures and lesions.... Veterinary radiology is an ever-expanding field which justifies serial updates to the book, represented by this new edition." ©Doody's Review Service, 2025, Jennifer M Reinhart, DVM, PhD, DACVIM (SAIM), DACVC (University of Illinois College of Veterinary Medicine) Doody's Score: 95, 4 Stars!
