Basic Atlas of Sectional Anatomy: With Correlated Imaging

The atlas presents the anatomy of the human body by examining sections in various planes--axial, sagittal and coronal. They present a three dimensional concept of the body that usually cannot be obtained through traditional dissection and present clear andconcise relationships of structures that are difficult at times to reconstruct after dissection. These selections are correlated with radiologic images utilizing the modalities of computed tomography, magnetic resonance and ultrasound. The correlation ofradiographic images with the anatomic sections in this book uniquely enhances one's understanding of sectional human anatomy and its relation to present day medical imaging with the newer imaging modalities.
Reviews of the Last Edition:
"A phenomenal achievement... An extremely useful bench book."
--Journal of Anatomy
"Should be on the library reference in any department where cross-sectional imaging is done."
--American Journal of Roentgenology
Each chapter covers a specific region of the body as seen by axial, sagittal or coronal sections.Images of section anatomy are presented with corresponding CT, MR, or US images on facing pages for direct comparison of human anatomy to radiographic images section by section.
Illustrations clearly indicate section's origins for quick user-orientation.Large, profusely labelled anatomic sections allow for easy indentification of small structures.
Introduction provides basic understanding of US, CT and MRI.
