The Anatomy in text and images. The Anatomy book with wide recognition:

• A vivid general overview of the structure of the human body in three parts.
• Quick access to information with easily accessible classification of rich content and color-coded index. Ideal for studying and preparing for exams, as well as for information at any time.

Even more clinical indications for the connection of anatomical knowledge with medical practice. Musculoskeletal System:

• General Anatomy offers a general overview of Histology, Osteosyndesmology, and Myology.
• The Systematic Anatomy of the Musculoskeletal System presents in a visual way the structure, function, and collaboration of the striated muscles.
• The Topography of the Peripheral Conducting Pathways of the musculoskeletal system and the trunk is presented in detail.

Together with the new Nomenclature, the previously used terms are also recorded, as well as the German names, where deemed appropriate. Internal Organs:

• The macroscopic anatomy of the internal organs is presented in a clear and concise manner. Microscopic anatomy is described to the extent required for understanding each organ.
• Detailed descriptions of the topography and function of the organs complete a comprehensive picture.
• The content processing has been further adapted to the needs of clinically oriented Anatomy.

Detailed representations of body sections are also included, as a basis for interpreting modern imaging methods such as axial and magnetic tomography.

A new chapter is included in the 9th edition for pregnancy and embryonic development. Nervous System and Sensory Organs:

• This part offers a systematic general overview of the structure and functional organization of the nervous system.
• New techniques of anatomical research and new imaging methods (axial, magnetic, and positron emission tomography, PET, CT, NMR) are presented in a condensed way, as well as the molecular bases of impulse transmission and the interaction of ion channels and neurotransmitters.
• Commonly used synonymous terms are recorded together in the text and index, to facilitate the student's learning of those terms that have the same meaning.
