Product Description
This companion resource to Gray's Anatomy for Students presents a vivid, visual depiction of anatomical structures. It demonstrates their correlation with appropriate clinical images and surface anatomy - essential for proper identification in the dissection lab and successful preparation for course exams. Clinically focused, consistently and clearly illustrated throughout, and logically organised...Gray's Atlas of Anatomy makes it easier to master the essential anatomy knowledge you need for exams and dissection labs.
- Learn anatomy in a logical fashion by following an approach that in many cases progresses from a superficial to a deep orientation in logical progression.
- Identify at a glance the various anatomical structures of the body and better understand their relationships to each other with the visual guidance of 1395 exquisitely illustrated anatomical figures.
- Visualize the clinical correlation between exterior and interior anatomy thanks to 85 surface anatomy photographs overlaid with anatomical drawings - more surface anatomy photographs than you will find in any other anatomy atlas!
- Recognize anatomical structures as they present in practice through 272 clinical images - including laparoscopic, radiologic, surgical, ophthalmoscopic, otoscopic, and other clinical views - placed adjacent to anatomic artwork for side-by-side comparison.
- Use additional online tools with bonus access to www.graysatlas.com with your purchase.

Great mixture of clinical medicine and gross anatomy September 22, 2008

This book combines great illustrations with the appropriate clinical imaging(be it x-ray, MRI or whatever) to understand the relationships between the imaging and the underlying gross anatomy. A great resource whether you are studying for gross anatomy class, your USMLE Step1 exam, or brushing up on your anatomy while on the wards.
The illustrations by genius artist Richard Tibbitts will knock your socks off! December 14, 2007

Richard Tibbitts is the medical illustrator to watch, the heir apparent to Brödel and Pernkopf. The authors of this book should thank their lucky stars to be blessed by Mr. Tibbitt's amazing artistic talent. Students using this book will cherish the rich educational experience afforded by the thoughtful, carefully planned illustrations that convey more knowledge in less time than thousands of words. Well done Mr. Tibbitts! Just when we think your work has reached the pinnacle, you again surprise us by outdoing yourself with another sublime and heroic masterpiece! The world is a richer place for your diligent efforts!
An Extraordinary Reference October 1, 2007

A remarkable tool and extraordinary reference for anyone interested in studying, practicing, or teaching somatic education. As a GUILD CERTIFIED FELDENKRAIS PRACTITIONERcm, I found the surface anatomy pages particularly invaluable. The extraordinary illustrations on these pages enable one to view in precise detail the relationship between the surface landmarks of the body such the chest and shoulders and the specific bones which lie under these areas. Being able to view such a relationship is extremely helpful in my work. Indeed, these surface anatomy pages as well as the CT, MRI and x-ray images in Gray's Atlas of Anatomy provide a very clear and vivid idea of what lies beneath...
