DESCRIPTION

FEATURES Grant’s Dissector walks students step by step through dissection procedures in the anatomy lab. Each chapter is consistently organized, beginning with a brief study of surface anatomy followed by concise coverage of osteology, presenting important foundational structures that will aid in localization of soft tissue structures. Each unit begins with a “Dissection Overview,” a guide to the procedures to be accomplished during the session. This is followed by “Dissection Instructions,” with a logical sequence and numbered steps for the dissection. Each dissection concludes with a “Dissection Follow-up” that presents a numbered list of tasks illustrating the important features of the dissection and encouraging the synthesis of information. f f NEW! Updated artwork featuring approximately 75 replacement and/or modified figures f f NEW! New placement of dissection of suboccipital region in neck section f f NEW! “Dissection Reviews” retitled to “Dissection Follow-up” to more accurately describe the exercises f f “Before you Dissect” and “After you Dissect” information accompanying each procedure f f “Clinical Correlation” blue boxes that lend relevance to each procedure f f Image bank for faculty preparing lectures or source material, with full online access for students

DESCRIPTION A cornerstone of gross anatomy since 1943, Grant’s Atlas of Anatomy reaches students worldwide with its realistic dissection illustrations, detailed surface anatomy photos, clinical images and comments, and quick-reference muscle tables. Renowned for its accuracy, pedagogy, and clinical relevance, this classic atlas boasts significant enhancements, including updated artwork, new conceptual diagrams, and vibrantly re-colored illustrations. Clinical material is clearly highlighted in blue text for easy identification. FEATURES f f NEW! Additional clinical images (CTs, MRIs) help stu- dents apply the laboratory experience to clinical rotations. f f NEW! Updated/additional clinical comments now appear in blue text for quick identification. f f NEW! Grant’s classic illustrations have been updated/ replaced or feature enhanced colorization. f f NEW! Schematic and orientation drawings have been updated or replaced to better facilitate understanding of structures and relationships. f f Color surface anatomy photographs combine with hallmark anatomical illustrations for the most complete atlas available. f f Diagnostic images, with sections at the end of each chapter, feature clinically relevant MRIs, CT scans, and ultrasounds.
