The on-going core of this atlas is its standard of realistic illustrations that portray anatomical relationships. Photographs of actual cadaver dissections along with numerous schematic drawings aid the student in anatomic orientation. Chapters are organized by region, in order of a typical dissection. Each chapter contains two sections: a description and illustration of organs, and a depiction of those organs within the regional anatomy. New to this edition is an increase of MRI pictures, approximately 30 schematic drawings made even more precise, and an updated text where appropriate.Remarkable dissections with unmatched, precise representation of color and structureInstructive schematic drawings in addition to brilliant color dissection photographsDidactic organization which reflects the functional aspects of the organ systemsAn "external to internal" presentation of dissections as in the labConsistent application of clinical cases
