Imaging is ever more integral to anatomy education and throughout modern medicine. Building on the success of previous editions, this fully revised fifth edition provides a superb foundation for understanding applied human anatomy, offering a complete view of the structures and relationships within the body using the very latest imaging techniques. It 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 over 80% new 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 - Unique new 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 - Now a more compete learning package than ever before, with superb new 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 'slide-lines' - 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

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.

The definitive text of normal anatomy. Each area of normal anatomy is presented using a range of techniques, juxtaposing the anatomical information visible using the different modalities and highlighting their differing applications.

McMinn's Color Atlas of Human Anatomy is the most popular atlas of human anatomy ever published - over one million copies have been sold worldwide in more than 22 languages. The fourth edition has been carefully revised to reflect the increasing emphasis on clinical anatomy and to make this stunning atlas even more user-friendly. More than 60 new dissection photographs have been added along with 250 clinical notes. A brand new layout, color-coded user icons, additional orientational diagrams and interpretational line drawings, and an improved labeling system make this edition ideal for revision as well as long-term study.

The book uses high-quality color photographs to highlight surface features and the position of the underlying anatomy from head to toe. The text retains its readability but has been abridged and updated. New labeling system highlights key areas of anatomy.

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

An authoritative, easy-to-use guide to the advanced systems and techniques that are making--or will soon make--a major impact on our lives, in such areas as computing, communications, biotechnology, medicine, national defense, space, education, entertainment, and the environment. The Cutting Edge includes 120 original entries that go far beyond basic technological information to include: the history of a technology, how it works, its present applications and the issues--ethical, legal, environmental, political, scientific--which surround it. It serves a wide audience, from high school students and their teachers in science and social studies courses to college undergraduates and general readers who want to know not only how a new technology works--but also understand its historical context and the potential impact on our lives.
