FAAA; Anne M. R. Agur, BSc (OT), MSc, PhD

DESCRIPTION

The world’s most trusted clinically focused anatomy text!

Renowned for comprehensive coverage, the best-selling

Clinically

Oriented Anatomy

guides students from initial anatomy and founda-

tional science courses through clinical training and practice. The eighth

edition reflects significant new information and updates and maintains

the highest standards for scientific and clinical accuracy.

Comprehen-

sive updates

reflect changes in the clinical application of anatomy as

well as new imaging technologies, focusing on the anatomy that stu-

dents need to know.

FEATURES

Extensively revised “Clinical Blue Boxes”

explore the practical applications of anatomy, and helpful icons

distinguish the type of clinical information covered in each.

Clinically relevant anatomy

focuses on physical diagnosis, interpretation of diagnostic imaging, and

understanding the anatomical basis of emergency medicine and general surgery.

Insightfully rendered, anatomically accurate illustrations, with updates throughout

, make this book

an aesthetically rewarding learning resource. Combined with many photographs and medical images, these

stunning visuals facilitate comprehension of anatomical concepts and retention of “mental images” of

anatomical structures.

New and updated medical imaging and integrated surface anatomy

within each chapter demonstrates

the relationship between anatomy, physical examination, and diagnosis. 

Expanded “Overview and Basic Concepts” chapter

includes functional systemic anatomy summaries and

introduces approaches to studying anatomy, terminology, imaging, and more. 

Inclusion of new sections describing the enteric nervous system

(considered by some as a “second brain”)

and its unique role in the innervation of the digestive system gives students cutting-edge insight into this

significant scientific discovery.

A more realistic approach to the musculoskeletal system

explores the action and use of muscles and

muscle groups in daily activities, emphasizing gait and grip.

“Bottom Line” boxes

summarize information to facilitate ongoing review and underscore the big-picture

viewpoint.

Clinical Blue Box animations, case studies, and interactive multiple-choice questions

thePoint.lww.com

facilitate review and self-testing.
