Anatomy and physiology, a key part of the core curriculum in surgical technology, is the central basic science course around which the knowledge of surgical technology revolves. However, most conventional A&P books do not cover the surgical aspects of anatomy and physiology that the Core Curriculum for Surgical Technology requires. Surgical Anatomy and Physiology for the Surgical Technologist provides the basic concepts of A&P and applies them to practical surgery. Throughout the book, examples show how the anatomy and physiology of a particular body system or organ relates to a surgical procedure. This resource includes case studies, review questions, key terms, objectives for each chapter, and information boxes that tie specific anatomical elements to surgical practice. This book meets the requirements of the current edition of the Core Curriculum for Surgical Technology.

This new book is designed to facilitate the comparison between normal and abnormal anatomy, both on the surface and (by the use of radiologic imaging) within the body. GENERAL SURGICAL ANATOMY AND EXAMINATION explores the common problems that a surgeon may encounter and detect not only by radiologic imaging, but also by seeing, hearing, and feeling. Using a series of color photographs and radiologic images (many with interpretive line drawings and overlays to show normal and abnormal instances), the book illustrates how anatomy, clinical history, and examination can be used to point at the diagnosis in patients with surgical conditions. The text is short yet comprehensive and is closely linked to the visual presentation of the surgical disease.

A comprehensive text of basic anatomy for surgeons in training. The basic sciences have always played an essential role in the training of doctors. In the professional education of young surgeons, anatomy remains an enormously important subject. Although surgical training in the United Kingdom is currently undergoing a radical change, the basic sciences elements of the postgraduate clinical training must be retained. This book therefore has been written primarily to cover the fundamentals of applied anatomy relevant to the surgical training programme. Whilst 'Applied Surgical Anatomy' is intended primarily for surgeons, it is hoped that it will also be useful for those taking professional examinations in other aspect of medicine.
