Features: Introduction: The book includes 120 color photographs of adult specimens and 270 cT and MRI images. The human specimens were prepared by the Department of Anatomy at Shandong University School of Medicine using the frozen section technique. The thickness of the specimens of the head and limbs is 8 mm, while the thickness of the specimens of the trunk is 10 mm. The base line for the horizontal specimens of the head is the zygomatic-auricular line, the base line for the sagittal specimens of the head is parallel to the midsagittal plane, and the base line for the coronal specimens of the head is perpendicular to the zygomatic-auricular line. The cT and MRI images were obtained from living subjects and prepared by the Department of Radiology at Qilu Hospital of Shandong University and the Shandong Provincial Institute of Medical Imaging. The CT scanners used were spiral cT and multi-slice spiral cT, and the MRI scanners had a field strength of 15T. It should be noted that Doctors Gao Bo, Lin Xiangtao, and Liu Xuejing, disregarding the damage of X-rays to tissues, provided their own CT and MRI images. This selfless spirit is admirable. Professor Lan Mingzhen and Professor Hua Bochen have provided meticulous guidance for many years, and the teachers of the Department of Anatomy at Shandong University School of Medicine have offered much assistance. Gratitude is expressed to all of them.
