PREFACE
A third of a century has passed since the first edition of Clinically Oriented Anatomy appeared
on bookstore shelves. Although the factual basis of anatomy is remarkable among basic sciences
for its longevity and consistency, this book has evolved markedly since its inception. This is a
reflection of changes in the clinical application of anatomy, new imaging technologies that reveal
living anatomy in new ways, and improvements in graphic and publication technology that
enable superior demonstration of this information. Efforts continue to make this book even more
student friendly and authoritative. The ninth edition has been thoroughly reviewed by students,
anatomists, and clinicians for accuracy and relevance and revised with significant new changes
and updates.
Clinically Oriented Anatomy has been widely acclaimed for the relevance of its clinical
correlations. As in previous editions, the ninth edition places clinical emphasis on anatomy that
is important in physical diagnosis for primary care, interpretation of diagnostic imaging, and
understanding the anatomical basis of emergency medicine and general surgery. Special attention
has been directed toward assisting students in learning the anatomy they will need to know in the
21st century, and to this end, new features have been added and existing features updated.
Revision of the art program that began with the seventh edition continues into the ninth edition.
Most illustrations were revised for the seventh edition, improving accuracy and consistency and
giving classical art derived from Grant’s Atlas of Anatomy a fresh, vital, new appearance. The
ninth edition includes further updates to figures and labeling to maximize clarity and efficiency.
The figures of muscles accompanying the tables have been extensively revised for the ninth
edition, and overviews of arteries, with pulse points, and innervation of limbs have been added.
Efforts started with the fourth edition continue to ensure that all the anatomy presented and covered in the text are also illustrated. The text and illustrations were developed to work together
for optimum pedagogical effect, aiding the learning process, and markedly reducing the amount
of searching required to find structures. The great majority of the clinical conditions are
supported by photographs and/or color illustrations; multipart illustrations often combine
dissections, line art, and medical images; and tables are accompanied by illustrations to aid the
student’s understanding of the structures efficiently described.
ANATOMY DESCRIBED IN A PRACTICAL, FUNCTIONAL
CONTEXT
A more realistic approach to the musculoskeletal system emphasizes the action and use of
muscles and muscle groups in daily activities, emphasizing gait and grip. The eccentric
contraction of muscles, which accounts for much of their activity, is now discussed along with
the concentric contraction that is typically the sole focus in anatomy texts. This perspective is
important to most health professionals, including the growing number of physical and
occupational therapy students using this book.
SURFACE ANATOMY AND MEDICAL IMAGING
Surface anatomy and medical imaging, formerly presented separately, are integrated into the
chapter, presented at the time each region is being discussed, clearly demonstrating anatomy’s
relationship to physical examination and diagnosis. Both natural views of unobstructed surface
anatomy and illustrations superimposing anatomical structures on surface anatomy photographs
are components of each regional chapter. Medical images, focusing on normal anatomy, include
plain and contrast radiographic, MRI, CT, and ultrasonography studies, often with correlative
line art as well as explanatory text, to help prepare future professionals who need to be familiar
with diagnostic images.
