Base de données terminologique bilingue (latin-français) qui présente la terminologie officielle et uniformisée de toutes les disciplines scientifiques reliées à l'anatomie.

Whatever your medical or scientific needs, Terminologia Anatomica leads you quickly from Latin terms to their English equivalents. Available in book form or as a combined book/CD-ROM set, and featuring more than 150,000 entries, this new work is both comprehensive and up-to-date. It's also the only terminology guide approved by the International Federation of Associations of Anatomists. A great time-saver and a handy desk reference, Terminologia Anatomica features: - the first and only complete listing of anatomical terms in both Latin and English - a standardized guide to anatomic terminology authorized by the IFAA - full cross-references and an alphabetical index for ease of use - a complete list of changes from earlier guides to anatomic terminology, including Nomina Anatomica The most up-to-date reference in the field, Terminologia Anatomica is a must for anatomists and physiologists and an essential addition to medical and scientific libraries.

Anatomical Terminology is the foundation of medical communication, and it is important that medical and scientific communities throughout the world use the same name for each structure. This book contains the internationally accepted terminology for human gross or topographical anatomy including neuroanatomy in Latin and English. Having been adopted by the IFAA (International Federation on Anatomical Associations) the Terminologia Anatomica supersedes all previous lists.

This book is unique in that it provides the reader with the most up-to-date terminology used to describe the human nervous system (central and peripheral) and the related sensory organs, i.e., the Terminologia Neuroanatomica (TNA), the official terminology of the IFAA (International Federation of Associations of Anatomists). The book provides a succinct but detailed review of the neuroanatomical structures of the human body and will greatly benefit not only various specialists such as (neuro)anatomists, neurologists and neuroscientists, but also students taking neuroanatomy and neuroscience courses. The book offers a high yield, combined presentation of neuroanatomical illustrations and text and provides the reader a ‘one-stop source’ for studying the intricacies of the human nervous system and its sensory organs. It includes an alphabetical list of official English terms and synonyms with the official Latin terms and synonyms from the TNA. With regard to the entries, the name of the item in standardized English is provided, followed by synonyms and the official TNA Latin term, Latin synonyms and eponyms, a short description and in many cases one or more illustrations. To facilitate the use of illustrations, certain entries such as the gyri or sulci of the cerebral cortex are presented together with extensive cross-references. Terms that form part of a certain structure (such as the amygdaloid body, the thalamus and the hypothalamus) are listed under the respective structure. Segments and branches of arteries are discussed under the main artery, for example the A1–A5 segments under the anterior cerebral artery. Most nerves can be found following their origin from the brachial, cervical and lumbosacral plexuses. However, the major nerves of the limbs are discussed separately, as are the cranial nerves. Nuclei can be found by their English name or under Nuclei by their eponym.

Terminologia Histologica provides the most authoritative, current histological terminology for histology professionals and students, medical writers and editors, medical researchers, medical libraries, and related companies and professionals. This reference is written by the Federative International Committee on Anatomical Terminology (FICAT), the leading authority for anatomical terminology and the primary reference for such premiere information sources as the National Library of Medicine and Medical Subject Headings (MeSH�). Terminologia Histologica can also be purchased with a CD-ROM which contains all the features of the print reference and enables users to perform quick searches, copy and paste, and add notes and new topics.

This book presents the anatomical and histological structure of the human larynx by demonstrating gross, histological, and electron microscopic photographs for all professionals interested in the human larynx. In the first part, sagittal, horizontal and coronal whole-organ serial sections of adult and newborn larynges are shown in color photographs. The whole-organ serial histological sections of the human larynx are very unique in the world. In the second part, the functional morphology of the human larynx is also shown in superb and breathtaking photographs. The specimens in this textbook have been assembled into a concise synopsis of laryngology commonly encountered in clinical practice. Functional Histoanatomy of the Human Larynx is intended to facilitate an in-depth understanding not only the structure of each component but also the special relationships between them, as well as the microstructure and functional morphology of the human larynx and of the vocal fold as a vibrating tissue. Lavishly illustrated and documented, this book offers a wealth of information on the functional morphology of the larynx.

Advanced Techniques in Musculoskeletal Medicine & Physiotherapy is a brand new, highly illustrated guide to the diagnosis and treatment of musculoskeletal disorders. It demonstrates how to safely and effectively use selected minimally invasive therapies in practice. In addition to more well-established techniques such as acupuncture or dry needling, this ground-breaking resource also covers techniques including intratissue percutaneous electrolysis, mesotherapy, percutaneous needle tenotomy, and high volume image guided injections. Other featured chapters include those on specific musculoskeletal ultrasound such as sonoanatomy and ultrasound-guided procedures. Each chapter describes the principles, indications and contraindications, mechanisms of action and detailed outlines of techniques with an emphasis throughout on accessible practical information. Additionally, methodologies, research results and summaries of studies for particular minimally invasive therapies are presented. The book is also supported by a companion website – www.advancedtechniquesonline.com – containing procedural video clips, a full colour image library and interactive multiple choice questions (MCQs). skills-based and clinically-oriented – reinforced by the latest contemporary scientific medical research chapters on outcomes in clinical practice indications and contraindications discussed clinical cases, key terms and key points boxes used throughout companion website – www.advancedtechniquesonline.com – containing procedural video clips, full colour image bank and interactive MCQs
