This profusely illustrated text will provide trainee radiologists with a unique overview of normal anatomy as illustrated by the full range of modern radiological procedures. The theme throughout is not only to illustrate the appearance of normal anatomical features as visualised by radiology, but to provide a comprehensive text which describes, explains and evaluates the most current imaging practice for all the body systems and organs. Where necessary, the images are supplemented with line drawings, to illustrate essential anatomical features. This combination of a wealth of high-quality images fully supported by an authoritative text will give all radiologists an insight into normal anatomy, which is such a vital prerequisite for interpreting abnormal radiological images. The volume is specifically designed for trainee radiologists. It will be an essential illustrated text for those studying Part 1 of the examination of the Fellowship of the Royal College of Radiologists, and also for trainees elsewhere in the world studying for their specialist examinations in radiology.
Renowned for its innovative approach to understanding the human body, this second edition features full-color art throughout, using a three-dimensional approach to anatomic structure. Emphasizing surface anatomy, it features unique additional views (posterior, medial, lateral) of important structures with extensive coverage of those areas – such as the perineum, head, and neck – which are often difficult for students to understand and appreciate. The ADAM Student Atlas of Anatomy is an invaluable learning and review tool developed for medical, allied health, and human biology undergraduate and graduate students.
Applied Anatomy for Anaesthesia and Intensive Care is an invaluable tool for trainee and practised anaesthetists and intensive care physicians seeking to learn, revise and develop their anatomical knowledge and procedural skills. Concise textual descriptions of anatomy are integrated with descriptions of procedures that are frequently performed in anaesthesia and intensive care, such as nerve blocks, focussed echo, lung ultrasound, vascular access procedures, front of neck airway access and chest drainage. The text is supported by over 200 high-quality, colour, anatomical illustrations, which are correlated with ultrasound, fibre optic and radiological images, allowing the reader to easily interpret nerve block sonoanatomy, airway fibre optic images and important features on CT and MRI scans. Useful mnemonics and easily reproducible sketch diagrams make this an essential resource for anyone studying towards postgraduate examinations in anaesthesia and intensive care medicine.
This expanded new, full colour edition of the classic Applied Radiological Anatomy is an exhaustive yet practical imaging resource of every organ system using all diagnostic modalities. Every illustration has been replaced, providing the most accurate and up-to-date radiographic scans available.Features of the second edition:Completely new radiographic images throughout, giving the best possible anatomic examples currently availableBoth normal anatomy and normal variants shownNumerous colour line illustrations of key anatomy to aid interpretation of scansConcise text and numerous bullet-lists enhance the images and enable quick assimilation of key anatomic featuresEvery imaging modality includedEdited and written by a team of radiologists with a wealth of diagnostic experience and teaching expertise, and lavishly illustrated with over 1,000 completely new, state-of-the-art images, Applied Radiological Anatomy, second edition, is an essential purchase for radiologists at any stage of their career.
The Authors of this book are an anatomist and a sports physiotherapist with wide experience who both teach sports injury related university courses. Because of its critical location in the body and its many components, diagnosing, managing and rehabilitating sport related back injury is extremely challenging and requires a detailed knowledge of the associated anatomy. In this book the general and specific structures of the back, including the cervical, thoracic and lumbo-sacral spine, are presented and illustrated as a basis for clinical practice. Since clinical signs and symptoms require correct interpretation for an accurate diagnosis and effective management, a special feature of this book is to include detailed case histories showing how knowledge of back anatomy can be used to arrive at a correct diagnosis. This book will therefore be of benefit to a wide range of professionals concerned with sports disorders and injuries.
This volume was first published in 1982. Hume Adams and Margaret Murray have produced an atlas that illustrates basic post-mortem techniques in neuropathology. It shows how to remove the brain, the spinal cord, samples of peripheral nerve and muscle, the eye and the contents of the orbit, the arteries in the neck that supply the brain and the structures in the base of the skull. These structures can then be examined in a sequence that will help to elucidate the sequence of events leading to a person's death. How a brain should be dissected is also illustrated, and there is a final chapter on brain neuro-anatomy.
Cranial nerves are involved in head and neck function, and processes such as eating, speech and facial expression. This clinically oriented survey of cranial nerve anatomy and function was written for students of medicine, dentistry and speech therapy, but will also be useful for postgraduate physicians and GPs, and specialists in head and neck healthcare (surgeons, dentists, speech therapists etc.). After an introductory section surveying cranial nerve organisation and tricky basics such as ganglia, nuclei and brain stem pathways, the nerves are considered in functional groups: (1) for chewing and facial sensation; (2) for pharynx and larynx, swallowing and phonation; (3) autonomic components, taste and smell; (4) vision and eye movements; and (5) hearing and balance. In each chapter, the main anatomical features of each nerve are followed by clinical aspects and details of clinical testing. Simple line diagrams accompany the text. Detailed anatomy is not given.
