Features: This book is an anatomical atlas depicting the form and structure of the human body. Utilizing artistic techniques, it selectively and as perfectly as possible presents the fundamental aspects of human body structure to clinical practitioners. The lower limb volume includes a total of eight chapters, over 600,000 words, and 512 color and black-and-white illustrations. Following the content system of the upper limb volume, it first describes the structure of the lower limb system. Subsequently, it is divided into five parts: hip, thigh, knee, lower leg, and foot, each further subdivided into several regions. To accommodate the characteristics of the lower limb, chapters on standing and walking are added. Finally, the book provides a concentrated analysis of the lower limb nerves.
This atlas adheres to the principle of integrating theory with practice, organically combining morphological theories to bridge the gap between basic knowledge and clinical practice. From an applied perspective, it depicts the systematic overview, surface anatomy, layered regional anatomy, surgical approach anatomy, skeletal morphology, joint structure and movement, muscle function, detailed nerves, X-ray anatomy, and meridian points. It comprehensively covers morphology, function, signs, examinations, injury mechanisms, and treatment principles, making it convenient for readers to use.
This atlas is suitable for orthopedic surgeons, neurosurgeons, general surgeons, anatomists, and medical students to reference in medical clinical practice, teaching, and research.
