"If you're looking for a book to help you study for anatomy I recommend this book. I love the clean and simple pictures because they are less overwhelming (unlike Netter). I actually have both netter and atlas of anatomy and tend to use atlas of anatomy more.
Anatomy is very difficult to learn from a book, you might need at least two books that complement each other to really help with your studies."

Color Atlas of Ultrasound Anatomy 9783131390523 Medicine Health Science Books Reviews
- I have a second edition of Atlas of Human Anatomy (Netter), which was given to me by my friend. I liked the book but sometimes there was too much drawn or labeled on one plate and was it was annoying if I wanted to see where just one nerve, artery etc. went to or came from. So I went online and saw this book, saw the 5 star rating, and was told by someone who used it that they really liked it. Since my Netter edition was published in 1997 I figured that I would spend some money on a new Atlas that used a computer to draw its images instead of paint (sorry traditional artist). When I received this book I was very pleased with the images, they are beautiful and clear. There are several angles of a particular section so you can see a structure in many different ways. They also split up the sections into nerve arteries and veins, which is great. With so many positive things why am I giving it a 3 (well it really should be 3.5)? Well when I started using the book in my second semester of anatomy I found out what sucks about this book is the labeling. Yes I am aware of the other books by Thieme that are specifically for neuroanatomy section, and etc. but there are some things in this book that should have been labeled without me spending more money to get it (especially loan money). For example, Lamina Terminalis, pararectal fossa were all labeled in my 1997 atlas but not in this atlas. I am mad that I paid money to get less labeling especially after so many people gave it such a good review. Some people may argue, those are just little details left out but I would say how stupid are you going to look and feel if a neurologist ask you where the Lamina Terminalis is and you don't know? Sure you can fill in some of the gaps with a google search but you could do that for all your anatomy structures in which case why are you even thinking about buying an atlas? They also show contributions to the pudendal nerve from S1 in figure 27.11(B) when it should only be S2,S3, and S3 contributions.
Bottom line this book is not without errors but is still a good buy. This book has great pictures (yes they are better than Netter) but to get the most out of this book you might get irritated a few times and realize the structure that you have to know for your skills exam or written portion may not be labeled (but it will be in Netter). I know there are errors in Netter and I still like this book better. I just am harboring some resentment that this book is not as perfect as everyone made it seem and I probably would have given it a 4 if I hadn't expected so much.
My Errata of Atlas of Anatomy
pg. 577, Table 37.12 that the figure labeled "A" shows the investing layer (yellow line) splitting to enclose the sternocleidomastoid muscle anteriorly but posteriorly it does not split to enclose the trapezius muscle (which it should) as the table indicates
Pg 576 fig. 37.29 A - there was no line demarcating the omoclavicular triangle and the label "omoclavicular triangle" is therefore just pointing to the posterior belly of the omohyoid muscle.
Pg 576 fig. 37.29 A - The midline is a defining landmark that separates the two anterior triangles and it is missing from the figure. This is a problem because the two submental triangles and muscular triangles are labeled as a singular "submental triangle" and "muscular triangle" suggesting that there is only one.
Pg 576 fig. 37.29 A - The muscular triangle is not outlined yet it is labeled.
Pg 576 fig. 37.29 A & B - The carotid triangle is incorrectly outlined using the sternohyoid muscle, it should have been outlined by the superior belly of the omohyoid muscle instead of the sternohyoid.
Pg 576 fig. 37.29 B - there is a vertical line that is used to distinguish the occipital triangle from the omoclavicular triangle, however, that vertical line is not the correct distinguishing mark between the two triangles. The vertical line should have been an oblique line across the posterior belly of the omohyoid muscle. Subsequently the "Omoclavicular triangle" should be changed to accurately point out the now corrected triangle. - If you're looking for a book to help you study for anatomy I recommend this book. I love the clean and simple pictures because they are less overwhelming (unlike Netter). I actually have both netter and atlas of anatomy and tend to use atlas of anatomy more.
Anatomy is very difficult to learn from a book, you might need at least two books that complement each other to really help with your studies. - As many have said before me, this atlas breaks down anatomy conceptually,
into small, easy-to-understand chunks.
Whereas Netter will present you a "topography" view that shows everything all at once,
this book divides it up, so you learn bones first, then muscles, then vasculature, then nerves etc.
It also chunks muscles into easy-to-understand layers or groups.
You learn it all bit by bit, concept by concept.
The end of each chapter sums it all up with some pretty good topography pictures.
I do wish they had more topography pictures that showed everything as it looks in the body,
because that's how it'll actually look in a real dissection.
Netter is superior in this regard.
If you have the money and you really want to learn anatomy, get yourself an old Netter in addition to this book, and you'll have the best of both worlds.
Overall, the book is fantastic. The pictures are indeed GORGEOUS, and the material is presented in a way that is extremely helpful to a first-time learner. I highly recommend it! - Really beautiful - the images can't be beat. I've shown it to other students in my class, and they've gone out and purchased the same book. I'm fine with this older edition - my friend got the latest edition, and we haven't been able to find differences yet. I figured the human body probably won't change much between editions. I've used this to supplement electronic 3-D models - sometimes they are more difficult to maneuver. This book also has very clear summaries of origins and attachments which are incredibly useful.
- I think when most of my colleagues in medical school think of anatomy books, they think Netters (Atlas of Human Anatomy with Student Consult Access, 5e (Netter Basic Science). ) I still think that is the most complete Anatomy Atlas I have seen. I like to be different and bought this book. I really like the images so much better in this book, easier to see and read, more colors, etc. The issue is, it really goes light on vasculature and neuroanatomy. Not to say it's not included, it is. But if you are studying for a test or really want to learn about many of the smaller vessels in the body, this book is going to leave you wanting.
5 Stars for musculoskeletal. 2.5 stars for the rest. - Thiemes Atlas of Anatomy is in my eyes the new standard for human anatomy. Gone are the days of dense, over-populated Netters. Don't get me wrong, Netters is still a great resource, but Thiemes simply does a better job of systematically breaking down the vastness of anatomy into manageable and more clinically relevant subsections (such as organ systems) while still giving a good overall integrated image at the beginning of each chapter. Clinic vignettes and some radiography also help supplement learning. The book is very thorough and the illustrations are incredible. I would highly recommend this book for anybody entering medical school, physical therapy school, etc. or even someone taking their first anatomy class at the undergraduate level. It's a a resource that you will hold onto for a long time.
