Download Free (EPUB, PDF)

Designed to provide a thorough understanding of sectional anatomy, this unique, two-volume set is a complete, easy-to-use learning package. Volume 1, “Concepts,” presents detailed, readable descriptions of sectional anatomy of the entire body broken down into body systems. It focuses on how different structures within a system are related, so you can form a clear picture of how everything fits together. The text is highlighted with many new labeled diagnostic images, including radiographs, CT, MR, and sonograms. Volume 2, “Applications,” is an interactive workbook with coloring, labeling, and other exercises designed to help you identify the structures most commonly encountered in various imaging techniques.Helpful features include: chapter outlines, chapter objectives, pathology boxes, summary tables of anatomical information, review questions, chapter quizzes, and a glossary. Interactive exercises include labeling, anatomical coloring, short answer questions, and “Chapter Recall” tests. Many more labeled, high-quality images, including MRI, CT and sonography help you learn anatomy using real-life images you’ll see in clinics and in practice.Quick Check Questions test your understanding of the material as you progress through the chapters. Important Anatomical Relationships section describes relationships between anatomical structures and refers you to relevant images. Working with Images sections in each body system chapter provide additional discussion and diagnostic images, helping you learn to identify anatomical structures with a variety of imaging modalities. List of Key Terms at the beginning of each chapter alert you to the terms you need to watch for before you read. More exercises with diagnostic images in the Applications volume, giving additional opportunities to identify and label anatomic structures on actual images. Answers to all Quick Check questions are given in the back of the book, allowing for immediate feedback; answers to the other questions and exercises are available online on Evolve. Evolve Online Resources contains images of cadaver sections, allowing you to see anatomy related to the line drawings in the book.

There is alot of information. It is a good review for anatomy but, the diagrams are very confusing. I read other consumer reviews before I had to purchase for a class and thought " oh, it cant be that bad." Well, it is. If you have any say in what books to choose from, try to find something else.

I purchased this E-book in May of 2015. This is probably a great learning tool. However, when I downloaded it, only the Concepts book downloaded. I called and talked to their support team. They said the publisher had not cleared the Applications book for download (even though I paid almost $100 for it!). support said they were going to take the option to purchase the E-book off of their site until the publisher cleared it for download AND that as soon as the publisher did, I would be able to download it. It is now July. I am halfway through the class on this and still don't have the E-book, YET THEY'RE STILL SELLING IT!!!I am a loyal customer of , but this has really really upset me. I finally decided to write a review so no one else makes the same mistake I did in purchasing this E-book.

Unless you are required to have this book by an instructor, I would look to another book. The overall content is decent, but the explanations of the various anatomical parts never match up with the pictures/figures. They are sometimes separated by a handful of pages or more. It's a chore to flip back and forth to try and make sense of the figures in conjunction with the text. Until now, I never truly appreciated textbooks with good flow/organization.

Fantastic book for learning about Cross sectional anatomy. Goes into detail, but that is needed. The workbook that comes with it is wonderful. My professor has used many of the review questions for our exams. For someone who is back in school after 020 yrs, this is a good book for review as well.

I paid $69 for this sectional anatomy series believing I was getting both the concepts and applications book. When my order finally came in the mail, the only book I received was the concepts book. I didn't feel like playing around so I returned the book. I was upset that I had to return the book because it was in a beautiful condition. there was a slight crease on the binding where you could tell someone had opened it up and there were maybe 10 pages of highlighted material and that was it. This book was practically unused. If I would have received the applications book with my order (which the description made it seem like I was) then I would have rated this a 5.

(Not sure how "new kaki fan" got there. hmmm).The negative reviews written previously are a fairly good assessement of this book. I took this course in prep for MRI and even the teacher admitted that she's tried a variety of texts and none are perfect. I think she picked this book because it comes with workbook and at first glance, appears to be geared toward students trying to memorize as little as possible in a short time. Thankfully, she recorded her lectures, complete with slideshow, which students could review on the web. She wanted us to largely pay attention to her lecture. The text in this book isn't bad - there are alot of good things, but then there are some problems. Probably was bothered me the most was the drawings as there is a destinct lack of consistancy from one drawing to the next. I just accepted it as being impossible to draw anatomy with more consistancy as everyone is a little different. Let's face it, cross-sectional isn't easy. When you find yourself guessing where the portable vein is after studying it thoroughly, you realize that a book can only provide so much. In the end, we didn't use the book at all. I spent more time studying the larger atlases at my school library. Those were great, especially the one by Dr. Frank Netter.

I have an idea as to why people are writing bad reviews for this book and its because they didn't have a realistic concept of what cross sectional anatomy was in the first place. This is a supplement to what a professor is supposed to teach you during class. How its so mind blowing to people who give it one star is beyond me. This book is exactly what you should expect it to be. Diagrams and explanations of cross sectional images. Does it work? Yes. Will you get out of it what you put into it like everything else in life ? Yes. Good luck on your future endeavors as a Radiological specialist.

It says two volume set! I only recieved one of the two books!!! School starts in two weeks. I only recieved the applications book not the concepts book! Not happy!
