Pocket tutor surface anatomy is the perfect companion for medical students, junior doctors and anyone seeking to master the topographical anatomy required to examine patients, perform basic procedures and interpret radiological images. Over 200 high-quality photographs demonstrate key anatomical landmarks. Clearly labelled overlays help you correlate underlying structures with what you see and feel on the surface. High-yield text provides a systematic, concise review of core anatomy and focuses on the structures relevant to clinical skills, procedures and imaging. Clinical insight boxes, endoscopic and radiological images help you relate surface anatomy to clinical practice. Make every spare moment count with the pocket tutor series of guides to clinical investigations, skills and specialties. From reminders of key first principles to tips on how to think like an expert, the step-by-step approach and pocket-size format mean you can reinforce knowledge fast: on attachment, in transit, during tutorials or before exams. Chapter 1 introduces the principles of surface anatomy and overviews core anatomical terminology, palpation technique, movements and cutaneous innervation. Subsequent chapters (2-8) then review each main anatomical region in turn. The book will be of benefit to students in anatomical, medical and healthcare disciplines and also to those in clinical practice, for example foundation doctors or surgical trainees. It can be used as a quick reference whilst in the clinic or teaching, but is equally adept at supporting more in-depth learning or revision.
