Clinical Anatomy: A Revision and Applied Anatomy for Clinical Students

Clinical Anatomy is a classic. Written by one of the great UK teachers of Anatomy, previous editions of this book have been an invaluable resource for thousands of medical students and trainees throughout the world. This short revision text provides an understanding of anatomy in its clinical context. Taking a regional approach, surface anatomy is explained and followed by detailed discussion of each organ or constituent part. Clinical features are included after each anatomical description. These emphasise the clinical significance of a structure and highlight how disease or injury affects that structure. Throughout the book simple, easily reproducible colour line drawings and radiographs are used to illustrate structures.The clinical emphasis of the book makes this text an essential purchase for medical students and especially for surgical house officers preparing for the Membership of the Royal College of Surgeon’s Exam.
