Features
Learn anatomy in a logical fashion by following an approach that in many cases progresses from a superficial to a deep orientation.
Identify at a glance the various anatomical structures of the body with the visual guidance of nearly 500 exquisitely illustrated anatomical figures.
Visualize the clinical correlation between exterior and interior anatomy thanks to about 200 surface anatomy photographs overlaid with anatomical drawings — more surface anatomy photographs than you will find in any other anatomy atlas!
Recognize anatomical structures as they present in practice through nearly 200 photographic examples — including laparoscopic, surgical, ophthalmoscopic, otoscopic, and other clinical views — placed adjacent to anatomic artwork for side-by-side comparison.
