Atlas of Clinical Gross Anatomy uses over 500 incredibly well-executed and superb dissection photos and illustrations to guide you through all the key structures you’ll need to learn in your gross anatomy course. This medical textbook helps you master essential surface, gross, and radiologic anatomy concepts through high-quality photos, digital enhancements, and concise text introductions throughout.

  • Get a clear understanding of surface, gross, and radiologic anatomy with a resource that’s great for use before, during, and after lab work, in preparation for examinations, and later on as a primer for clinical work.
  • Learn as intuitively as possible with large, full-page photos for effortless comprehension. No more confusion and peering at small, closely cropped pictures!
  • Easily distinguish highlighted structures from the background in each dissection with the aid of digitally color-enhanced images.
  • See structures the way they present in the anatomy lab with specially commissioned dissections, all done using freshly dissected cadavers prepared using low-alcohol fixative.
  • Bridge the gap between gross anatomy and clinical practice with clinical correlations throughout.
  • Master anatomy efficiently with one text covering all you need to know, from surface to radiologic anatomy, that’s ideal for shortened anatomy courses.
  • Review key structures quickly thanks to detailed dissection headings and unique icon navigation.
  • Access the full text and self assessment questions at studentconsult.com.

Preface
As we completed the manuscript that was to become the first edition of Atlas of Clinical Gross Anatomy , released in 2005, we were pleased with the features of this atlas. We were able to produce the original intended objectives, such as outstanding dissections and superb photographs, the general presentation of the sections from the head down to the foot, and the consistent organization within each chapter from superficial structures to deeper structures. These all came together nicely. The rewards for this endeavor came the next year with our atlas being awarded the R. R. Hawkins Award from the Professional and Scholarly Division of the Association of American Publishers in February 2006, and then winning the Richard Asher Prize in October 2006, from the Royal Society of Medicine and the Society of Authors. As exciting as these accolades were, we readily saw, as an author team and from comments and suggestions we received (especially from our students, who found this volume of great help), several ideas and changes that would greatly improve the usefulness of this atlas in the classroom as well as in the lab. Utilizing the time given us and the opportunity to collaborate physically at key moments over the past couple of years, we accomplished several notable changes to produce this second edition of Atlas of Clinical Gross Anatomy .
We feel that the most significant change in the second edition of our atlas has come in the form of 20 new dissections. We completely reworked the chapters on the heart ( Chapter 30 ) and the lungs ( Chapter 31 ). Additionally, the chapter on the vertebral column ( Chapter 26 ) received three new and much-needed dissections featuring ligaments of the vertebral column and the costovertebral joints. The remaining new dissections were also within Section 3, with Chapter 33 now including a key dissection of the arteries of the celiac trunk and Chapter 34 , the classic presentation of the branches of the abdominal aorta. Chapters 36 to 38 on the pelvic girdle and viscera and the perineum were enriched with dissections of the iliac vessels, the female recto-uterine pouch, and the male perineal neurovascular structures.
A second significant change in this edition is in the titling and labeling of all the dissection images. First, each page of topography and dissection received a more accurate title within the color bar at the top of each page, giving the reader a quicker and clearer orientation of the image. The descriptive legend below each photograph was revisited for greater clarity. Key structures of each image were bolded for emphasis. The bolding of key structures helps to illustrate the main components of each dissection. We also made a few title changes in the Head and Neck section, which are now more accurate and all-inclusive.
Finally, another change worth mentioning is the reorganized sequence of Chapters 32 to 35 , placing these chapters in a more logical progression. In this new edition, we begin with the anterolateral abdominal wall ( Chapter 32 ) and proceed through the abdominal organs ( Chapters 33 and 34 ), ending in Chapter 35 with the posterior abdominal wall.
It will be apparent to the reader that the major changes are to be found in the Trunk section of this book. We feel very pleased with the changes we made to improve the quality of this second edition of Atlas of Clinical Gross Anatomy , and we hope that this book will be useful in your study of human anatomy.

Acknowledgments
The idea to write this book came to me while a first-year medical student. Thank you to each person who encouraged me to write this book: John, who was my anatomy professor in college and one of my favorite teachers; Ben, my medical school gross anatomy professor who is an excellent lecturer and now a good friend; and Darrell, who is, in my opinion, the world s best medical photographer.
Thank you to the Elsevier staff for being such friendly co-workers on this large task and for being mindful of this author s words and opinions. I truly enjoyed the entire process.
Thank you to Kendra Fisher, MD, for all of your assistance in helping us obtain and also review all of the radiographic anatomy in this book.
Thank you to my sister, Juanita Moses, MD, who has a great understanding of practical clinical medicine and an impeccable attention to detail; she edited the entire manuscript at each of the three proof stages.
And above all, a special thank you to my mother, Dr. Gnani Ruth Moses, for raising a son to believe that all things are possible.
K. P. Moses
Thanks must go to everyone who has assisted in the proofreading and checking of the manuscript.
Grateful thanks to Michigan State University for supplying the cadavers for the chapters on the upper and lower limbs. Special thanks go to Kristin Liles, Director of Anatomical Resources, and Bruce E. Croel, Anatomical Preparation Technician.
