Editorial Reviews – Clinically Oriented Anatomy PDF

Reviewer: Mark Jaffe, DPM, MHSA (Nova Southeastern University)
Description: In this sixth edition of a detailed textbook of regional anatomy, the authors carefully juxtapose clinical correlates with normal functional anatomy. This edition updates and improves upon the content and layout of the 2005 edition. (Clinically Oriented Anatomy PDF)
Purpose: The primary purpose is to provide a comprehensive resource for students to help close the gap created by the reduction in time devoted to formal anatomy teaching in medical and allied health programs. There is obviously a vital role for an authoritative textbook of clinical anatomy to help students progress beyond memorization to clinical application, and this book meets the authors' objectives. (Clinically Oriented Anatomy PDF)
Audience: The intended audience is beginning health science students even if they have not been exposed to anatomy previously. However, the book's detail may be more than first-year medical students or allied health students need during their introductory anatomy course. That said, upper level medical and allied health students will find this an excellent resource to prepare them for physical diagnosis and diagnostic imaging interpretation. The first editor, Keith L. Moore, is well known and respected in this area. He has previously teamed with Arthur F. Dalley, and for this edition, has added Anne M. R. Agur as an additional coauthor.
Features: The introductory chapter provides a brief systemic overview of anatomy, including basic terminology, which prepares readers for the regional anatomy chapters. Those chapters combine a plethora of color illustrations with the detailed text descriptions. Color-coded tables are strategically located throughout each chapter. The popular clinical "Blue Boxes" are grouped together toward the end of each chapter. Each chapter concludes with "The Bottom Line" summary of salient facts. The book includes access to a student companion website, which gives students the ability to search the entire contents of the book and access to USMLE-style case studies and quizzes. Not surprisingly, neuroanatomy is the weakest area, although the final chapter (chapter 9) is a summary review of the cranial nerves. (Clinically Oriented Anatomy PDF)
Assessment: This is an excellent anatomy reference and it provides the resources to expand one's mastery of the subject. However, it may be more detailed than introductory students need. Gray's Anatomy for Students , 2nd Edition, Drake et al. (Elsevier, 2010), would be a better required text for novice anatomy students. Overall, this new edition improves upon the fifth edition with better artwork and the use of a more student-friendly layout. By incorporating insights from students, anatomists, and clinicians, the authors have made what was already an excellent clinical anatomy textbook an even better one.Doody's Review Service

"The study of anatomy is often a challenging endeavour for many medical students. Central to the learning process is the use of a good textbook. Two of the most often recommended texts for medical students areGray's Anatomy for Students(GAS),descended from the iconic text by Henry Gray, andClinically Oriented Anatomy(COA),by Moore, Dalley and Agur.

"Both texts employ a regional approach to the study of anatomy.GAS separates each chapter into four sections:Conceptual Overview, Regional Anatomy, Surface Anatomy andClinical Cases. The conceptual overview aims to provide the very basic concepts of each region in a concise summary before moving on to an increasingly detailed description. While this approach may be useful for the beginner or reviewer, the inevitable repetition creates a degree of redundancy.COA presents information in a 'bones up' format, progressively adding surrounding structures before detailing the arthrology of each region. Each chapter concludes with a series of radiographic images to complement integration and understanding.

"Certain striking distinctions are evident in the textual quality of each book.GAS aims to strip away irrelevant information into an easy-to-read summation while leaving intricate details for other texts. While this provides an excellent introduction for the neophyte,COA includes more rigorous explanations concerning the finer points and the complex interaction with surrounding structures. An enlightening example of the differing styles can be observed through the treatment attributed to the sternocleidomastoid (SCM) muscle. (Clinically Oriented Anatomy PDF)

A concise, tabular description of muscular attachments, innervations and basic function is provided inGAS in association with a stylised diagram indicating its position in the neck. Conversely,COA devotes an entire four page sub-section to a detailed discussion of the manner in which body position and the use of synergist muscle groups can alter function of the SCM beyond an isolated view of the muscle acting independently in the anatomical position. Thus, while simplified to enhance the initial integration of basic concepts,GAS may simultaneously perpetuate certain erroneous notions concerning the nature of anatomical function. On the other hand, the text inCOA may reduce its effectiveness for the uninitiated, whileGAS may prove to be too simplistic for the interested student.
"Both books approach diagrammatical representation through the use of computer-generated imagery, though distinct dissimilarities are visible.  (Clinically Oriented Anatomy PDF)

COAdepicts each region by incorporating detailed and realistic diagrams which are thoroughly labelled. In contrast,GASrepresents analogous images through a distinctly stylised fashion. Major structures are portrayed in an idealistic mode, which, in combination with relatively sparse labelling, may impede practical application, particularly in medical courses focussed on anatomical dissections. However the simplified overview, devoid of extensive detail, is potentially easier to comprehend for the less experienced anatomist. In addition to detailed, accurate labels,COAconsolidates diagrammatic elements through representations in various anatomical planes. The depiction of distinct layers within each system aids the appreciation of the detailed nature of such structures. Ultimately,COAassociates these illustrative characteristics through the use of numerous, detailed figures within each specified anatomical region. The use ofCOAmay prove to be beneficial, both in dissection and in providing a broader scope of understanding. (Clinically Oriented Anatomy PDF)

"The integration of clinical aspects throughout a text is essential to the effective understanding of anatomical information. Both books appear to have achieved a relatively streamlined integration of such information through the utilisation of clinical vignettes. Complemented with relevant diagrams, topics covered in the text of these vignettes include information relating to development, anatomical variation, radiology and pathology. For those without significant exposure to anatomy, having clinical information presented in such a fashion is an ideal mode for the consolidation of vital concepts. The use of end of chapter case studies inGASallows the reader to evaluate their own level of understanding, a feature that is absent inCOA. Radiological correlations inGASare discussed further through an in-text approach. Alternatively,COAutilises radiological imaging juxtaposed with easily understood computer generated diagrams, allowing the student to understand the concepts therein with more clarity. (Clinically Oriented Anatomy PDF)

"Through our experience in both learning and teaching, we believe thatCOA delivers a more comprehensive insight into the study of anatomy. Not only does it encompass a strong clinical foundation, it provides the reader with enhanced factual information and diagrams. Contrastingly,GAS offers equivalent aspects in a more concise, readable form yet neglects more in-depth explanations. The choice of textbook will ultimately depend on both the school curriculum and the eagerness of individual students. Whilst providing an excellent synopsis into the anatomical world, the possibility exists that students may findGAS lacking after covering the basic concepts. It is our view thatCOA offers greater scope for continued learning throughout medical school and beyond."—Australian Medical Student JournalAustralian Medical Student Journal –David Sparks
