  • Anatomie des organes et viscères

    Tête, cou et tronc
    • 2nd Edition
    • Michel Dufour
    • French
    L’anatomie des viscères est souvent délaissée dans beaucoup de formations paramédicales. Comme le reste de l’anatomie, elle se heurte à une pédagogie descriptive relativement aride, avec une mémorisation basée sur un « par coeur » décourageant vite les bonnes volontés. C’est encore plus vrai pour l’étude des viscères, organes et régions topographiques de la tête, du cou et du tronc auxquels l’étudiant n’est pas préparé. La bonne compréhension de ces structures anatomiques est toutefois indispensable à l’activité quotidienne des kinésithérapeutes. L’objectif de cet ouvrage est donc de prolonger les acquis de l’appareil locomoteur (Anatomie de l’appareil locomoteur : tomes 1, 2 et 3) en abordant les organes et viscères sur le même modèle de présentation avec des tableaux systématisés et synoptiques, chacun étant illustré d’un ou plusieurs schémas explicatifs. Cette structure offre ainsi une lecture complète de la tête, du cou et du tronc : - Organes de la tête - Organes du cou - Organes du thorax - Organes de l’abdomen - Paquets vasculo-nerveux - Régions topographiques L’iconographie originale, tout en couleurs, répond au même souci de clarté, de simplicité et de vision spatiale. L’étudiant pourra donc facilement entrer dans des connaissances dépouillées au maximum de leur complexité sans pour autant tomber dans la vulgarisation, centrées sur l’essentiel et documentées. Le praticien, plus spécialement celui de thérapie manuelle à qui ce travail est destiné, peu familiarisé avec ce domaine, y trouvera un bagage compréhensible et capable de l’orienter dans l’abord de ces régions particulières. Cette nouvelle édition, entièrement actualisée, offre au lecteur une information toujours plus précise et pertinente et une adéquation optimale entre le texte et les figures. La partie auto-évaluation s’est enrichie de chrono-QROC, élaboration originale et unique de réponses organisées en fonction du temps.
