Clinical anatomy: a case study approach

This is a case-based way to learn structural and clinical anatomy. This book uses 50 cases and 250 full-color illustrations to teach medical and health professionals structural and clinical anatomy. The cases are designed to demonstrate the relevance of anatomy in making accurate diagnoses. It is perfect for course and board preparation. Features: the full-color illustrations have been carefully rendered to convey realistic, three-dimensional detail and are linked to the case studies; and each case includes patient complaint, relevant findings of the physical examination, and clinical problems to consider.
