HUMAN SECTIONAL ANATOMY: ATLAS OF BODY SECTIONS, CT AND MRI IMAGES, FOURTH EDITION

- Superbly photographed cadaver sections showing realistic colour
- New, improved radiological images captured using the most up-to-date equipment
- Additional dissections of the skull and brain
- Comprehensive labelling updated with the latest terminology
- Invaluable additional notes giving extra detail on anatomical and radiological features

Summary
First published in 1991, Human Sectional Anatomy set new standards for the quality of cadaver sections and accompanying radiological images. Now in its fourth edition, this unsurpassed quality remains and is further enhanced by the addition of new material.
The superb full-colour cadaver sections are compared with CT and MRI images, with accompanying, labelled, line diagrams. Many of the radiological images have been replaced with new examples for this latest edition, captured using the most up-to date imaging technologies to ensure excellent visualization of the anatomy. The photographic material is enhanced by useful notes with details of important anatomical and radiological features.
Beautifully presented in a generous format, Human Sectional Anatomy continues to be an invaluable resource for all radiologists, radiographers, surgeons and medics, in training and in practice, and an essential component of departmental and general medical library collections.
