Internal Organs (THIEME Atlas of Anatomy)

Extraordinarily detailed, step-by-step anatomic atlas informs learning and medical practice

Thieme Atlas of Anatomy: Internal Organs, Fourth Edition, by renowned educators Michael Schuenke, Erik Schulte, and Udo Schumacher, along with consulting editor Wayne Cass, expands on prior editions. This volume features reorganized and updated sections, including additional coverage of clinical applications, radiologic procedures, and illustrations covering organs of the thorax, abdomen and pelvis, and perineum. As with the widely acclaimed prior editions, anatomic concepts are presented in a step-by-step sequence with system-by-system and topographical views.

The book lays a solid foundation of anatomic knowledge, with an introductory overview of each of the organs, including discussion of embryologic development. Each of the two regional units starts with a short overview chapter, followed by the structure and neurovasculature of the region and its organs. Subsequent chapters covering topographic regional anatomy support classroom learning and active dissection in the laboratory. The new edition further delineates anatomic relationships of inner organs, and the innervation and lymphatic systems of these organs.

Key Highlights

• A total of 1,437 images, including new, exquisitely realistic illustrations by Markus Voll and Karl Wesker that reflect gender and ethnicity diversity
• A new chapter delineates cross-sectional thorax anatomy, with stunning images by vertebra level
• Organs of the Digestive System and their Neurovasculature features new diagnostic imaging for colorectal and small intestine tumors, as well as hepatic illustrations
• Salient points for each organ are summarized in 22 high-yield fact sheets

This atlas provides a robust resource for gross anatomy course instructors and medical and allied health students looking for a deeper dive into organ system anatomy. It also provides an outstanding reference for physical therapists, yoga instructors, and related professionals.

The THIEME Atlas of Anatomy series also includes two additional volumes, General Anatomy and Musculoskeletal System and Head, Neck, and Neuroanatomy.

All volumes of the THIEME Atlas of Anatomy series are available in softcover English/International Nomenclature and in hardcover with Latin nomenclature.
