Key highlights: Updated clinical notes provide important correlations between the anatomy of the musculoskeletal system and disease processes Proven concept of concise texts paired with more than 200 color plates of outstanding anatomical illustrations Overviews of anatomical terms and their Latin equivalents Volume 1: Locomotor Systemis accompanied byVolume 2: Internal Organs(ISBN 978-3-13-242448-7) andVolume 3: Nervous System and Sensory Organs (ISBN 978-3-13-242451-7).
Color Atlas of Human Anatomy, Volume 2: Internal Organs For over 45 years, the three-volume Color Atlas of Human Anatomy has provided readers with a compact review of the human body and its ...structures. It is ideal for studying, preparing for exams, and as a reference. The new, 7th edition of Volume 2: Internal Organs builds on a robust foundation of scientific knowledge, summarizing in its compactness the macroscopic and topographic anatomy and the functions of the internal organs. Key highlights: Proven concept of concise texts paired with more than 200 color plates of outstanding anatomical illustrations Microscopic anatomy--if necessary for understanding the respective organ Organ functions are explained in connection with the embryological development of the organs, so many anatomical relationships can be better understood For numerous cross-sectional anatomical illustrations, corresponding CT and MRI images are provided, which helps with the application of anatomical knowledge in clinical practice Volume 2: Internal Organsis accompanied byVolume 1: Locomotor System(ISBN 978-3-13-242443-3) andVolume 3: Nervous System and Sensory Organs (ISBN 978-3-13-242451-7).
It is our distinguished pleasure to introduce this special monographic issue of the Italian Journal of Anatomy and Embryology dedicated to the topics of the history of the anatomical sciences and the ...morphological bases of palaeopathological studies. These two branches of human anatomy, though deemed interesting and relevant to the field by a large number of scholars worldwide, are too often neglected or not developed into a self-standing, productive field of research and teaching, especially in Italy. This is particularly sad and detrimental if one considers that human anatomy was reborn in Italy after centuries of intellectual stagnation first at Bologna thanks to the teaching of the Mediaeval scholar Mondino de’ Liuzzi and later, during the Renaissance, owing to the interest showed by artists in the correct representation of human morphology and bodily proportions.
This shows how rediscovering the discipline’s history inevitably leads its students to the realisation of the existence of an interplay between the figurative arts and the study of the human body, a bond which until the late 19th century was perceived as evident, self-explanatory and indissoluble. Moreover, it was precisely in that century that, from the anatomical discipline and its sub-branch osteology, stemmed biological anthropology, a subject which, now greatly enriched by biomolecular studies and by the assessment of mummified human remains, can help us discover the antiquity of humankind, its evolution as much as that of the diseases that characterised its historical path, a field traditionally called “palaeopathology”.
In this collection of contributions encompassing all of the aforementioned areas of research and anatomical knowledge, we aim to stimulate our colleagues and students to rediscover the importance of these topics and to develop them into a higher research platform capable of bridging the so-called hard biomedical sciences and the humanities.
Finally, we would like to express our deepest gratitude to Professor Domenico Ribatti, the journal’s editorial board and the Società Italiana di Anatomia e Istologia for kindly accepting our proposal and for the invaluable support they gave us throughout the editorial process. In addition, we would like to thank all the contributors and anonymous reviewers who have made this issue possible.
Building on the strength of the previous two editions, Bergman's Comprehensive Encyclopedia of Human Anatomic Variation is the third installment of the classic human anatomical reference launched by ...Dr. Ronald Bergman. With both new and updated entries, and now illustrated in full color, the encyclopedia provides an even more comprehensive reference on human variation for anatomists, anthropologists, physicians, surgeons, medical personnel, and all students of anatomy. Developed by a team of editors with extensive records publishing on both human variation and normal human anatomy, Bergman's Comprehensive Encyclopedia of Human Anatomic Variation is the long awaited update to this classic reference.
El aprendizaje de la Anatomia puede resultar un proceso dificultoso y poco motivador para el estudiante, esto debido a su complejo vocabulario. Uno de los desafios iniciales en el proceso de ...ensenanza-aprendizaje de la Anatomia Humana es el abordaje de los terminos generales del sistema musculoesqueletico agrupados con los nombres de reparos, marcas oseas o accidentes de la superficie del hueso. Estos suelen ser mencionados con una escasa o nula definicion en los recursos bibliograficos. El objetivo de este trabajo fue revisar los recursos bibliograficos que efectivamente cuentan con definiciones de los terminos denominados como reparos, marcas oseas o accidentes de la superficie del hueso, con la finalidad de aportan informacion aclaratoria sobre el uso de estos terminos oseos y asi facilitar los procesos de ensenanza-aprendizaje de la Anatomia Humana. Los terminos utilizados comunmente para describir reparos, marcas oseas o accidentes de la superficie del hueso fueron analizados en Terminologia Anatomica (FIPAT, 2019) y en cinco textos de Anatomia Humana. Para facilitar la comprension, los resultados fueron clasificados y tabulados Se pudo evidenciar una escasez de recursos bibliograficos con definiciones de los reparos, marcas oseas o accidentes de la superficie del hueso, la mayoria de estos terminos oseos se encontraron en el sistema musculoesquelico, sin embargo, no son exclusivos de este sistema, ademas, se observaron errores conceptuales en las definiciones de algunos de los terminos oseos. Una manera de comprender mejor estos terminos, es revisar de manera frecuente la Terminologia Anatomica. PALABRAS CLAVE: Reparos oseos; Marcas oseas; Accidentes anatomicos; Terminologia Anatomica.
