Atlas of Clinical Gross Anatomy ,1/e > Anatomy

Key Features
*LARGE PHOTOS, typically just one per page, taken in such a way as to
be as intuitive as possible: so, no more squinting over a small photo
or wondering where on the live body the dissection image might relate
to;
*DIGITAL PHOTOSHOP TECHNIQUES used on some of the dissections to
color enhance structures and thereby combine the best features of a
photo atlas and an artwork atlas; so, no more puzzling over
structures that are hard to distinguish from the background of the
dissection, a criticism often levelled at photographic atlases;
*Simple, non-parallel LEADER LINE LABELLING as opposed to matching
numbers to a key at the bottom of the page: so, no need to spend time
trying to find a number on a dissection, then matching it to a key at
the bottom of the page;
*ORIENTATION INSERTS when the dissection photo is an extreme close-
up: so, students won"t be baffled anymore by close-ups they cannot
understand;
*SPECIALLY COMMISSIONED DISSECTIONS, all done to a uniformly high
standard, all using cadavers that have been freshly dissected and
prepared using low alcohol fixative: so, each dissection will
look "fresh", not "washed out", while remaining intuitively easy to
understand and reproduce in the dissection lab;
*Navigational BODY REGION ICON on the top right hand corner of every
double page spread: so, no more flicking back and forth trying to
find a particular part of the body - no need even to consult the
Contents pages or Index for navigation purposes;
*RIGOROUSLY CONSISTENT, "SUPERFICIAL TO DEEP" chapter structure: o
Introductory overview text o Clinical correlations text o Surface
anatomy illustration o Superficial dissection(s) o Muscle review
table o Intermediate dissection(s) o Deep dissection(s) o Osteology &
X-Ray o Cross-sectional, endoscopic, laparascopic anatomy ensures
that each chapter follows the same pattern throughout so the reader
will always know exactly what coverage to expect, and in which order;
*Concise REVIEW TEXT including BOLD FACE TERMS and MNEMONICS: so, the
student will be able to obtain a quick overview of the structures to
be illustrated on the following pages and clarify any questions s/he
may have about anatomic relationships;
*Short CLINICAL CORRELATIONS text that bridges the gap between gross
anatomy and clinical practice thereby enlivening the descriptive
anatomy and relating it to real-life practice;
*Photographic material which reflects not just the lab setting but
also the PHYSICAL EXAM and SURGICAL INTERVENTIONS that students will
encounter later on in clinical practice;
*SURFACE ANATOMY for every structure with MUSCLES, major BONES and
CUTANEOUS INNERVATION "ghosted" on to the surface: so, the student
can learn to relate surface landmarks to underlying structures of
clinical relevance;
*SUMMARY TABLES for origin, insertion, innervation, action and blood
supply of muscles: this is ideal for self-testing and review
purposes, students have raved about this feature;
*CROSS SECTIONS, X-RAYS, MRI"s, CT"s, ANGIOGRAMS, ENDOSCOPIC and
LAPARASCOPIC VIEWS at the end of each chapter, to help the student
(a) learn to identify structures as they will later appear during
clinical practice and then, (b) when s/he starts to see these
diagnostic techniques during clinical rotation, recognise where on
the body the image relates to.
