Grant’s Dissector, 17th Edition

Grant s Dissector, Seventeenth Edition provides step-by-step human
cadaver dissection procedures for students to perform in the anatomy lab
and to recognize important relationships revealed through dissection.
More informative and approachable than ever, this updated seventeenth
edition broadens students understanding of key dissection procedures and
readies them for success in healthcare practice. Each chapter is
consistently organized beginning with a Dissection Overview that
provides a blueprint of what needs to be accomplished during the
dissection session and includes relevant surface anatomy. Dissection
Instructions offer a logical sequence and numbered steps for the
dissection. The Dissection Follow-up emphasizes important features of
the dissection and encourages students to reflect on and synthesize the
information. New and revised illustrations, including new surface
landmark illustrations, strengthen students grasp of common dissection
procedures. New chapter introductions focus students attention on
relevant Clinical Correlations. Reorganized Skeletal and Surface Anatomy
sections guide students logically from palpating bony structures to
making skin incisions. Enhanced and streamlined cross-references
reinforce understanding with direct links to related content in Grant s
Atlas of Anatomy as well as Grant s Dissection Videos. Dissection
Overviews guide students through relevant surface anatomy and osteology.
Numbered, step-by-step Dissection Instructions clarify procedures and
enhance the dissection experience. Full-color illustrations improve
students accuracy and precision from initial incisions through deeper
dissections. Clinical Correlation boxes place procedures in a clinical
context to ready students for healthcare practice.
