Weir Abrahams Imaging Atlas Of Human Anatomy

BMA Book Awards - Winner of Basic and Clinical Sciences category! The perfect up-to-date imaging guide for a complete and 3-dimensional understanding of applied human anatomy Imaging is ever more integral to anatomy education and throughout modern medicine. Building on the success of previous editions, this fully revised sixth edition provides a superb foundation for understanding applied human anatomy, offering a complete view of the structures and relationships within the whole body, using the very latest imaging techniques. All relevant imaging modalities are included, from plain radiographs to more advanced imaging of ultrasound, CT, MRI, functional imaging and angiography. Coverage is further enhanced by a carefully selected range of BONUS electronic content, including clinical photos and cases, ultrasound videos, labelled radiograph ‘slidelines’, cross-sectional imaging stacks and test-yourself materials. Uniquely, key syllabus image sets are now highlighted throughout to aid efficient study, as well as the most common, clinically important anatomical variants that you should be aware of. This superb package is ideally suited to the needs of medical students, as well as radiologists, radiographers and surgeons in training. It will also prove invaluable to the range of other students and professionals who require a clear, accurate, view of anatomy in current practice. Fully revised legends and labels and new high-quality images–featuring the latest imaging techniques and modalities as seen in clinical practice Covers the full variety of relevant modern imaging–including cross-sectional views in CT and MRI, angiography, ultrasound, fetal anatomy, plain film anatomy, nuclear medicine imaging and more – with better resolution to ensure the clearest anatomical views Core syllabus image sets now highlighted throughout–to help you focus on the most essential areas to excel on your course and in examinations Unique summaries of the most common, clinically important anatomical variants for each body region–reflects the fact that around 20% of human bodies have at least one clinically significant variant New orientation drawings–to help you understand the different views and the 3D anatomy of 2D images, as well as the conventions between cross-sectional modalities Ideal as a stand-alone resource or in conjunction with Abrahams’ and McMinn’s Clinical Atlas of Human Anatomy–where new links help put imaging in the context of the dissection room Now a more complete learning package than ever before, with superb BONUS electronic enhancements embedded within the accompanying eBook, including: Labelled image ‘stacks’–that allow you to review cross-sectional imaging as if using an imaging workstation Labelled image ‘slidelines’–showing features in a full range of body radiographs to enhance understanding of anatomy in this essential modality Self-test image ‘slideshows’ with multi-tier labelling–to aid learning and cater for beginner to more advanced experience levels Labelled ultrasound videos–bring images to life, reflecting this increasingly clinically practiced technique Questions and answers accompany each chapter–to test your understanding and aid exam preparation 34 pathology tutorials–based around nine key concepts and illustrated with hundreds of additional pathology images, to further develop your memory of anatomical structures and lead you through the essential relationships between normal and abnormal anatomy High-yield USMLE topics–clinical photos and cases for key topics, linked and highlighted in chapters

Imaging Atlas of Human Anatomy, 4th Edition provides a solid foundation for understanding human anatomy. Jamie Weir, Peter Abrahams, Jonathan D. Spratt, and Lonie Salkowski offer a complete and 3-dimensional view of the structures and relationships within the body through a variety of imaging modalities. Over 60% new images—showing cross-sectional views in CT and MRI, nuclear medicine imaging, and more—along with revised legends and labels ensure that you have the best and most up-to-date visual resource. This atlas will widen your applied and clinical knowledge of human anatomy. Features orientation drawings that support your understanding of different views and orientations in images with tables of ossification dates for bone development. Presents the images with number labeling to keep them clean and help with self-testing. Features completely revised legends and labels and over 60% new images—cross-sectional views in CT and MRI, angiography, ultrasound, fetal anatomy, plain film anatomy, nuclear medicine imaging, and more—with better resolution for the most current anatomical views. Reflects current radiological and anatomical practice through reorganized chapters on the abdomen and pelvis, including a new chapter on cross-sectional imaging. Covers a variety of common and up-to-date modern imaging—including a completely new section on Nuclear Medicine—for a view of living anatomical structures that enhance your artwork and dissection-based comprehension. Includes stills of 3-D images to provide a visual understanding of moving images.

"This popular atlas integrates a collection of cadaveric, osteological, and clinical images with surface anatomy models, interpretive drawings, orientational diagrams, and diagnostic images - many new to this edition - to provide a well-rounded visual perspective of a real human body as seen by the modern doctor. McMinn's Clinical Atlas of Human Anatomy, 6th Edition makes it easy to master the relationships of all of the key structures of the human body with examples of real human dissections. It's a must-have resource for both test preparation and enhancing your recognition skills in the lab and clinical practice."--Résumé de l'éditeur.

This book covers the normal anatomy of the human body as seen in the entire gamut of medical imaging. It does so by an initial traditional anatomical description of each organ or system followed by the radiological anatomy of that part of the body using all the relevant imaging modalities. The third edition addresses the anatomy of new imaging techniques including three-dimensional CT, cardiac CT, and CT and MR angiography as well as the anatomy of therapeutic interventional radiological techniques guided by fluoroscopy, ultrasound, CT and MR. The text has been completely revised and over 140 new images, including some in colour, have been added. A series of ‘imaging pearls’ have been included with most sections to emphasise clinically and radiologically important points. The book is primarily aimed at those training in radiology and preparing for the FRCR examinations, but will be of use to all radiologists and radiographers both in training and in practice, and to medical students, physicians and surgeons and all who use imaging as a vital part of patient care. The third edition brings the basics of radiological anatomy to a new generation of radiologists in an ever-changing world of imaging.

Anatomy of new radiological techniques and anatomy relevant to new staging or treatment regimens is emphasised. ‘Imaging Pearls’ that emphasise clinically and radiologically important points have been added throughout. The text has been revised to reflect advances in imaging since previous edition. Over 100 additional images have been added.

This definitive atlas views normal anatomy through the complete range of imaging modalities.
