Gray’s Basic Anatomy was developed
in response to students
and colleagues from around the world who requested a
more concise description of anatomy than that presented
in Gray’s Anatomy for Students. To accomplish this goal, we
reworked the material to focus mainly on regional anatomy
and integrated the clinical material, imaging, and surface
anatomy information directly into the text as:
• Clinical apps, which give students context for why a
strong anatomical background helps facilitate the
solving of clinical problems;
• Imaging apps, which offer students a great
introduction to the different techniques and modalities
available for imaging relevant anatomy; and
• Surface anatomy boxes, which help students
visualize the relationship between anatomical
structures and surface landmarks necessary for any
kind of patient examination.
