  • Anatomie de l'appareil locomoteur -Tome 2. Membre supérieur

    • 3rd Edition
    • Michel Dufour

    L'anatomie est le fondement de la connaissance pratique du corps humain : la pertinence de l'examen clinique, de la palpation et la compréhension fonctionnelle et pathologique en découlent. Son étude représente un long investissement, où les efforts de mémorisation sont intenses. Voici un manuel original qui met d'emblée l'accent sur la compréhension et la finalité du savoir. Il est à l'heure actuelle une référence en matière de pédagogie anatomique. Sa conception facilite l'acquisition des connaissances: - L'auteur a conçu plus de 600 figures en couleurs, toujours placées en regard du texte selon une approche originale où fonctionnalité et intelligibilité de l'information priment. - La structure des chapitres – textes aux plans simples et systématiques, tableaux synthétiques – favorise la mémorisation logique. - Pour chaque structure anatomique, des indications palpatoires et pathomécaniques permettent d'affermir les connaissances en soulignant les intérêts pratiques. Cet ouvrage de référence offre une lecture complète du membre supérieur : ostéologie, arthrologie, myologie, appareil fibreux, neurologie, angiologie, morpho-topographie. Il offre également une auto-évaluation par QROC et chrono-QROC, des clichés de dissection originaux et des planches régionales issues du célèbre atlas de Franck Netter. Premier ouvrage tenant compte de l'ensemble du programme d'anatomie des études de kinésithérapie, il s'adresse avant tout aux étudiants de cette discipline mais également à tous les étudiants concernés par l'anatomie de l'appareil locomoteur, ainsi qu'aux professionnels, kinésithérapeutes ou médecins, qui trouveront là un document facile à consulter. 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.
