High-Yield Gross Anatomy

This updated Second Edition of a book in the popular High-Yield(TM) series intended primarily for USMLE review provides a succinct and well-illustrated review of gross anatomy in an easy-to-follow outline format. This book reviews topics most likely to appear on the USMLE Step 1 exam along with clinical correlation and heavy usage of CT and MRI scans. New to this edition are additional clinical correlations, expansion of the Head and Neck chapters, division of the Vertebral and Spinal Cord into two chapters, addition of summary tables, and replacement of figures no longer used on the USMLE exam. Designed to crystallize review material and key information needed for success on the Boards, this is also a great review book during an anatomy course as well as a refresher prior to the onset of a general surgery rotation.

Ronald W. Dudek is Professor, Department of Anatomy and Cell Biology, Brody School of Medicine, East Carolina University, Greenville, North Carolina.
