Anatomy a photographic atlas : with 1209 figures, 1096 in color, and 113 radiographs, CT, and MRI scans

The knowledge of the structure and topography of the variousorgans of the human body is a prerequisite not only for theeducation of medical students but also for everyone involved indiagnostic and therapy of human diseases. This knowledge canoptimally be gained by dissection of the human body, with anexcellent atlas by one’s side. Today there exist a number of goodanatomic atlases, but most of them contain mainly schematicdrawings, which minimally reflect reality. In contrast, the photographsof the actual anatomic specimens have the advantage ofconveying the reality of the object with its proportions andspatial dimensions in a more accurate manner.On the other hand, schematic drawings help us to better understandthe photos. Therefore, in this eighth edition, the numberof drawings has greatly been increased and old drawings havebeen replaced by new ones specifically adapted to their accompanyingphotos.The didactic purpose of this atlas is not only to help the studentunderstand the topography of the human body. We also hopeto provide a way to systematically learn the anatomical structuresand functions. Therefore, the chapters of regional anatomyare consequently placed behind a systematic description of theanatomical structures – e.g., before dissecting an extremity, thestudent can study the systematic anatomy of the involved bones,joints, muscles, nerves, and vessels.The correlations between clinical images like MRI and CTscans can best be learned if sections of scans can be directlycompared with cadaveric anatomical sections of the same region.In this edition, a number of MRI scans have been added thathave been taken in a plane of the related anatomical section. Inaddition, functional MRI scans of the heart and the relatedanatomical preparations are included, hopefully increasing theimportance of the atlas for clinical purposes. Фотографической атлас анатомии показывает впечатляющие полноцветные фотографии реальных разрезов тела человека и сопроводительные схематические чертежи и диагностические изображения. Это издание содержит более 1200 изображений и показывает анатомические структуры более реалистично, чем иллюстрации в традиционных атласах. Подлинное фотографическое воспроизведение цвета, структуры и пространственных измерений помогут вам развить понимание анатомии человеческого тела. Featuring outstanding full-color photographs of actual cadaver dissections with accompanying schematic drawings and diagnostic images, this proven text depicts anatomic structures more realistically than illustrations in traditional atlases. Authentic photographic reproduction of colors, structures, and spatial dimensions as seen in the dissection lab and on the operating table help you develop an understanding of the anatomy of the human body. This updated eighth edition of Anatomy: A Photographic Atlas features outstanding full-color photographs of actual cadaver dissections with accompanying schematic drawings and diagnostic images. Depicting anatomic structures more realistically than illustrations in traditional atlases, this proven resource shows students exactly what they will see in the dissection lab. Chapters are organized by region in the order of a typical dissection with each chapter presenting topographical anatomical structures in a systemic manner. The eighth edition features additional clinical imaging such as MRIs, CTs, and endoscopic techniques, as well as new graphics, including clinically relevant nerve and vessel varieties and antagonistic muscle functions. Many older images have been replaced with new, high-resolution images and black-and-white dissection photographs have been replaced with color photography Featuring Outstanding Full-color Photographs Of Actual Cadaver Dissections With Accompanying Schematic Drawings And Diagnostic Images, Anatomy: A Photographic Atlas Depicts Anatomic Structures More Realistically Than Illustrations In Traditional Atlases. Chapters Are Organized By Region In The Order Of A Typical Dissection With Each Chapter Presenting Topographical Anatomical Structures In A Systemic Manner.
