Exploring Dog & Cat Dissection Guide - A Regional Approach
Heavily illustrated, over 580 pages.
Due out the first part of August 2009.
The goal of the Dog & Cat Dissection Guide is to make the learning of essential and clinical anatomy more accessible, pleasant, and to be placed in long term memory. Each region is organized into distinctive sections. Basic anatomy covered in each section includes: surface structures, bones, muscles, joints, nerves, and vessels. A palpation section follows. The final section of each region is radiographic anatomy to initialize the student into reading and recognizing normal radiographic anatomy. The chapter ends with a study list of the anatomical structures (followed by a fact to jog the memory) for which the students are responsible on lab tests. Clinical Anatomy has been placed in rounded boxes to increase interest in anatomy and emphasize why there is a need for learning the different structures.
