Features: With the development and popularization of CT and MRI diagnostic technology, the diagnostic rates of various difficult clinical diseases have significantly improved. However, some clinicians are not very familiar with the imaging anatomy of CT and MRI, and they may encounter difficulties when reading CT and MRI images in practice. To enhance the imaging anatomy knowledge of clinicians, we have compiled this Atlas of CT and MRI Imaging Anatomy, hoping it will assist in improving their understanding. This book includes seven parts: Head and Neck, (Five Senses), Abdomen, Pelvis, Spine, and Limbs. It features 231 CT images and 386 MRI images, totaling 617 images. In horizontal section images, the CT and MRI images are on the same plane. Each unit consists of two pages: one page for the CT image and localization map, and the other for the MRI image. In coronal and sagittal section images, one page presents the T1WI MRI image and localization map, while the other page presents the T2WI MRI image and bilingual annotations. Each unit image is on the same plane with the same tangent and structure, facilitating learning and application. For the ear region in the Five Senses part, each unit consists of two pages: one page for the CT image and localization map, and the other for a magnified image of the petrous part of the temporal bone with bilingual annotations. The eye, nose, and throat parts are also organized in two-page units, featuring three adjacent CT images. One page shows the first CT image and its annotations, while the second page shows the second and third CT images. The CT images were scanned using a fourth-generation CT machine and produced through laser imaging, with a layer thickness of 0.5–1.0 cm. The ear region CT images were created using high-resolution CT (HRCT) scanning with a layer thickness of 1 mm. The MRI images (T1WI, T2WI, and PDWI) were acquired using a 1.5T MRI machine with a spin-echo (SE) sequence, with a layer thickness of 0.5–1.0 cm. Nomenclature follows the Human Anatomy Terminology published by the National Natural Science Name Review Committee in 1991, with bilingual (Chinese-English) annotations.
