This article focuses on nine severe injuries that are generally not diagnosable until the third to fourth week following the date of injury, including how to diagnose these severe injuries. The discovery of any of these injuries early can make a significant difference in the case outcome.

Sysop (system operator)
A sysop is the person who runs a computer server. The term is used mainly in the world of bulletin board services (BBSs). In general, a sysop or system operator is one who runs the day-to-day operation of a server and the term suggests a person who is available when the system is.
A related term is administrator. In larger computer systems, the administrator manages security and user access while a system operator monitors and performs routine operations at the computer. In smaller systems, the administrator and sysop tend to be the same person.
Server
In the context of the Web, a server is a computer that's connected to the Internet. It "serves" Web pages to people who request them.
A server exists with relation to one or more clients. Typically on the Internet, a larger, more powerful computer (such as a mainframe computer) is a server, and a smaller computer (a workstation at an office, for example) is a client. However, the reverse can be true, depending on the service being rendered.
