Features: This book is an anatomical atlas depicting the form and structure of the human body. Using artistic techniques, it selectively and as perfectly as possible presents the basic appearance of human body form and 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, calf, and foot, with each part further subdivided into several regions. To adapt to the characteristics of the lower limb, chapters on standing and walking are added. Finally, the nerves of the lower limb are analyzed comprehensively.
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 of acupoints. It compiles morphology, function, signs, examinations, injury mechanisms, and treatment principles in one volume, 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.
