Color Atlas of Anatomy: A Photographic Study of the Human Body

by Johannes W. Rohen, Chihiro Yokochi, Elke Lütjen-Drecoll

This atlas features outstanding full-color photographs of actual cadaver dissections, with accompanying schematic drawings and diagnostic images. The photographs depict anatomic structures more realistically than illustrations in traditional atlases and show students exactly what they will see in the dissection lab. Chapters are organized by region in order of a typical dissection. Each chapter presents structures both in a systemic manner from deep to surface, and in a regional manner. This edition has sixteen additional pages of clinical imagesincluding CT and MRIthat students can compare with cross-sectional anatomic photographs. Many pictures have been electronically enhanced or rescanned for better contrasts.

Not for the faint of heart. This book has the most beautiful autopsy fotos ever. A must if you want to draw the human body inside and out, lol.

While I didn’t like it quite as much as an illustrated version such as Netter, it still proved to be a great resource. It is very helpful to be able to look at real pictures of cadavers and the photography in this book was well-composed.

An excellent resource!

This is anatomy, not the cute little cartoon pictures that accompany most anatomy books. I felt it really helped to have it on hand during gross anatomy when I could not be in the lab with my cadaver.One of the best resources out there.

A must have for any student studying anatomy. This is a great substitute to spending all your time in lab - the dissections are really great and it is easy to quiz yourself by covering up the IDs.

If you are taking an anatomy course you should have this book. If not, it may be gross :)

Walaupun anatomi selalu sukses bikin saya nangis, tapi selalu ada teman yang mau ngajarin saya. Buku ini very high recommended buat diliat-liat sebelum tentamen

Rad, even if you only have a slight interest in morbid pictures. If you have a deep curiosity of the body, this is the best out there.

A great book when studying the cadaver.

Not sure if I marked the right one; there were a couple of different authors/editions to choose from.
