      Designed to make learning more interesting and clinically meaningful, Netter's Concise Radiologic Anatomy matches radiologic images―from MR and ultrasound to CT and advanced imaging reconstructions―to the exquisite artwork of master medical illustrator Frank H. Netter, MD.

View direct, at-a-glance comparisons between idealized anatomic illustrations and real-life medicine with side-by-side radiology examples of normal anatomy and common variants with corresponding anatomy illustrations. Improve upon your knowledge with a brief background in basic radiology, including reconstructions and a list of common abbreviations for the images presented. Broaden your visual comprehension with the help of 30 brand-new ultrasound images. Access the complete contents online at Student Consult.
