Essentials of Clinical Anatomy, Second Edition
Informa Healthcare, June 1996, Pages: 558
In view of the persistent and growing swing towards the clinical application in the study of anatomy, this classic text/reference has been completely revised and updated. The second edition of Essentials of Clinical Anatomy reflects the importance of anthropology and comparative anatomy in modern teaching and contains a chapter on the anatomy of the physical examination. The book opens with introductions to the origins and meanings of anatomical terms and to basic tissues and organ systems, and then covers the upper limb, vertebral column, thorax, head and neck, lower limb, abdomen, and physical examination. The first edition was known for its clear and direct style, user-friendly organization, and attention to detail and the second edition does not deviate from this high standard. In addition, it is extensively illustrated with original artwork, imaging studies, and photographs.
New diagnostic and therapeutic techniques have been rendered possible by the explosive advances in radological imaging. Entrapment neurophites have emerged as important causes of painful syndromes. The examples of how things have changed are numerous. The practical use of these advances requires a sound anatomical background. Essentials of Clinical Anatomy, Second Edition provides it.
