Overview

Designed to make learning more interesting and clinically meaningful, this new resource matches radiologic images - including advanced reconstructions - to the exquisite artwork of master medical illustrator Frank H. Netter, MD. In contrast to all other anatomic/radiologic atlases available, Netter's Concise Radiologic Anatomy begins with the anatomy and matches radiologic images to the anatomic images that are indelibly etched in the minds of those who refer to Netter's Atlas of Human Anatomy on a daily basis. Concise text enables you to quickly and conveniently access the key anatomic and radiologic knowledge associated with the images. Organized and color-coded in the same manner as Netter's Atlas of Human Anatomy , it's a perfect companion guide to the Atlas - and a perfect guide for understanding the clinical context of normal anatomy.

Overall, I would recommend this book as a useful adjunct for the medical gross anatomy student, particularly those with an interest in radiology or surgery. While it does not attempt to replace the standard anatomic atlas, or supplant more definitive radiologic imaging references, the application of image reconstruction provides a novel way to transition from anatomic illustrations to the complexities of advancing radiologic image presentation. <i>--Clinical Anatomy</i> The authors state that their intention is to expose any student of anatomy to radiologic images and to show how modern radiology portrays human anatomy. They definitely accomplished this task. However, the handbook (as the authors refer to this atlas) does require one to have priori knowledge about human gross anatomy. This atlas is a worthwhile addition to anyone's collection of anatomical reference books and would probably be most effectively used by students in their c1erkships or residents when correlating radiologic images to the anatomy that they may have forgotten, but should remember! <i>--American Association of Anatomists</i></p> The Netter diagrams are superb.
