Atlas of Human Anatomy International Edition, 7th Edition

Description

The gold standard of excellence for 25 years Frank H. Netter MD’s Atlas of Human Anatomy offers unsurpassed depictions of the human body in clear brilliant detail – all from a clinician’s perspective. With its emphasis on anatomic relationships and clinically relevant views Dr. Netter’s work provides a coherent lasting visual vocabulary for understanding anatomy and how it applies to medicine today.

The only anatomy atlas illustrated by physicians, Atlas of Human Anatomy, 7th edition, brings you world-renowned, exquisitely clear views of the human body with a clinical perspective. In addition to the famous work of Dr. Frank Netter, you’ll also find nearly 100 paintings by Dr. Carlos A. G. Machado, one of today’s foremost medical illustrators. Together, these two uniquely talented physician-artists highlight the most clinically relevant views of the human body. In addition, more than 50 carefully selected radiologic images help connect illustrated anatomy to living anatomy as seen in everyday practice.

Updates to the 7th Edition based on requests from students and practitioners alike: • New Systems Overview section featuring full-body views of surface anatomy, vessels, nerves, and lymphatics. • More than 25 new illustrations by Dr. Machado, including the clinically important fascial columns of the neck, deep veins of the leg, hip bursae, vasculature of the prostate, and difficult-to-visualize areas, like the infratemporal fossa. • New Clinical Tables at the end of each regional section that focus on structures with high clinical significance. These tables provide quick summaries, organized by body system, and indicate where to best view key structures in the illustrated plates. • More than 50 new radiologic images — some completely new views and others using newer imaging tools — have been included based on their ability to assist readers in grasping key elements of gross anatomy. • Updated terminology based on the international anatomic standard, Terminologia Anatomical with common clinical eponyms included.
