While the relevance of anatomy to medical diagnosis and treatment continually evolves, anatomical knowledge will always be instrumental to effective treatment of patients. Building on the tradition of the highly acclaimed prior editions, by Anne M. Gilroy features new learning components that leverage the Thieme companion, . Concise, bulleted text paired with large, detailed anatomic figures enhance visual learning and retention of knowledge.
Organized by eight units, the book starts with basic concepts and a general overview of anatomic systems. Subsequent units focused on regional anatomy cover the Back, Thorax, Abdominal Wall and Inguinal Region, Pelvis and Perineum, Upper Limb, Lower Limb, and Head and Neck. Each unit includes a chapter on the practical application of regional imaging and extensive question sets with detailed explanations. A new ordering of chapters now mirrors the revised organization of the Atlas and sequence of dissections in most gross anatomy programs.
- More than 100 new images, updated illustrations, and revised versions of all autonomic schematics enhance understanding of anatomy
- New topics in clinical and developmental anatomy addressed throughout include clinically important vascular anastomoses, spinal cord development, and common anatomic anomalies
- Matching colored side tabs allow quick access to similar units in both books
- Over 50 of the new and previously included clinical and developmental correlations now feature descriptive images, radiographs, or schematics
- Self-testing sections in each unit have been expanded with over 40 new USMLE®-style question sets with detailed explanations
This is the quintessential resource for medical students to build anatomy knowledge and confidence as they progress in their medical careers.

1Introduction to Anatomic Systems and Terminology
Anatomy of the human body can be studied by inspection of all the systems that occupy a specific region or by considering the global aspects of a particular system throughout the entire body. The first approach tends to focus on anatomic relationships while the second is better suited to studying physiologic influences. Most systems, however, are conveniently confined to one or two regions, and in this text are discussed in the units devoted to those regions. Some systems, however, (those included in this chapter) are more pervasive throughout the body, and a fundamental understanding of their basic organization is important before undertaking the study of the systems they support.
1.1Structural Design of the Human Body
The most preliminary inspection of the human body reveals that it is structurally divided into a head and neck region, a trunk, and paired upper and lower extremities (limbs). Each is further divided into smaller regions (Fig. 1.1; Table 1.1). These house the structures that make up the functional organ systems that perform the basic bodily functions (Table 1.2). Although the primary organ of a system is often confined to a single anatomic region (e.g., the brain resides in the head), systems extend beyond regional borders, both anatomically and physiologically, to integrate their influences on normal function and growth.
Table 1.1 Regional Subdivisions of the Body
| Head (Caput) |
| Neck (Collum) |
| Trunk (Truncus) |
| •Thorax (chest) •Abdomen •Pelvis |
| Upper limb (Membrum superius) |
| •Shoulder girdle (Cingulum membri superioris) •Free upper limb (Pars libera membri superioris) |
| Lower limb (Membrum inferius) |
| •Pelvic girdle (Cingulum membri inferioris) •Free lower limb (Pars libera membri inferioris) |
Table 1.2 Functional Subdivisions by Organ Systems
| Locomotor system (musculoskeletal system) |
| •Skeleton and skeletal connections (passive part) •Striated skeletal musculature (active part) |
| Viscera |
| •Cardiovascular system •Hemolymphatic system •Endocrine system •Respiratory system •Digestive system •Urinary system •Male and female reproductive system |
| Nervous system |
| •Central and peripheral nervous system •Sensory organs |
| The skin and its appendages |

1.2Terms of Location and Direction, Cardinal Planes, and Axes
—All locational and directional terms used in anatomy, and in medical practice, refer to the human body in the anatomic position, in which the body is upright, arms at the side, with the eyes, palms of the hands, and feet directed forward (Fig. 1.2, Table 1.3).
—Three perpendicular cardinal planes and three axes based on the three spatial coordinates can be drawn through the body (Fig. 1.3).
•The plana sagittalia passes through the body from front to back, dividing it into right and left sides.
•The plana coronalia passes through the body from side to side, dividing it into front (anterior) and back (posterior) parts.
•The plana transversalia (axial, horizontal, cross-sectional planes) divides the body into upper and lower parts. A particular transverse section is often given the designation of the corresponding vertebral level, such as T IV, which passes through vertebra thoracica T IV.
•The axis longitudinalis passes along the height of the body in a craniocaudal direction.
•The axis sagittalis passes from the front to the back (or the back to the front) of the body in an anteroposterior direction.
•The axis transversalis (horizontal axis) passes through the body from side to side.
