About The Book

The Atlas of Anatomy, Fourth Edition by Annie M. Gilroy is an indispensable resource for students and clinicians mastering the details of human anatomy. This fourth edition builds upon its longstanding reputation as one of the most comprehensive and meticulously illustrated anatomy atlases available. Featuring over 2,000 detailed illustrations, including more than 120 new to this edition, it provides clear and accurate depictions of the human body from every angle.

Notable updates in this edition include expanded radiology sections with over 40 new images from radiographs, CT scans, and MRIs. Additionally, the text has adopted a more dissectional approach to the head and neck region, aligning with the way most students approach dissections. A focus on challenging anatomical areas, such as the peritoneal cavity, inguinal region, and infratemporal and pterygopalatine fossae, is also highlighted with new images and tables.

The clinical boxes offer over 30 new additions that discuss topics like function, pathology, diagnostic techniques, and anatomical variations, while the text includes detailed coverage of the autonomic nervous system (ANS), with updated wiring schematics. For a more practical approach, the muscle fact spreads provide key details on origin, insertion, innervation, and action for each muscle.

This user-friendly edition offers two-page spreads for each topic, facilitating easy navigation and review. You can also access the online version of the atlas, with "labels-on and labels-off" features for self-testing, available at MedOne.

The package dimensions of 11.4 x 9.2 x 1.4 inches make it perfect for both classroom study and professional reference.
