Exceptional atlas combines highly detailed illustrations with relevant applied and clinical anatomy
Thieme Atlas of Anatomy: Head, Neck, and Neuroanatomy, Fourth Edition, by renowned educators Michael Schuenke, Erik Schulte, and Udo Schumacher, along with consulting editor Cristian Stefan, features revised images and text. This three-in-one atlas combines exquisite illustrations, brief descriptive text/tables, and clinical applications, making it an invaluable instructor- and student-friendly resource for lectures and exam prep. Head and neck sections encompass the bones, ligaments, joints, muscles, lymphatic system, organs, related neurovascular structures, and topographical and sectional anatomy. The neuroanatomy section covers the histology of nerve and glial cells and autonomic nervous system, then delineates different areas of the brain and spinal cord, followed by sectional anatomy and functional systems. The final section features a glossary and CNS synopses.
