Applied Anatomy for Clinical Procedures at a Glance

This book is a concise practical book on applied anatomy for invasive procedures for foundation and core trainees. Material is presented as procedures according to training pathways, rather than by anatomical area, so the information is ideally laid out for trainees needing to equip themselves with the skills and knowledge for each clinical procedure or technique. In the classic style of the “At a Glance” series, each procedure is covered across a double-page spread, with photographs of surface anatomy and relevant line drawings which highlight salient points for performing the procedure safely. The second page complements the illustrative material and includes a written description of the procedural technique, with top tips and common anatomical pitfalls. In addition, the text includes potential exam questions related to the anatomy or clinical practice aspect of each procedure. The book is for foundation doctors and core trainees, but may also be of interest to anyone who needs to master invasive procedures in a clinical setting.
