Moore’s Essential Clinical Anatomy, Sixth Edition, presents core anatomical concepts in a concise, student-friendly format.
As with the leading, comprehensive Clinically Oriented Anatomy text, this succinct resource is widely acclaimed for the relevance of its clinical correlations, emphasizing anatomy essential to physical diagnosis for primary care, interpretation of diagnostic imaging, and understanding the anatomical basis of emergency medicine and general surgery. The text’s hallmark blue Clinical Boxes highlight the practical value of anatomy, accompanied by extensive surface anatomy and medical imaging features that clarify key concepts and structures to help build clinical confidence and equip students for success in practice.

PREFACE
Twenty-two years have passed since the first edition of Essential Clinical Anatomy was published. The main aim of the sixth edition is to provide a compact yet thorough textbook of clinical anatomy for students and practitioners in the health care professions and related disciplines. With each edition, we strive to make the book even more student friendly. The basic approach that underlies this textbook is to
• provide a basic text of human clinical anatomy for use in current health sciences curricula.
• present an appropriate amount of clinically relevant anatomical material in a readable and interesting form.
• place emphasis on clinical anatomy that is important for practice.
• provide a concise clinically oriented anatomical overview for clinical courses in subsequent years.
• serve as a rapid review when preparing for examinations, particularly those prepared by the National Board of Medical Examiners.
• offer enough information for those wishing to refresh their knowledge of clinical anatomy.
This edition has been thoroughly revised, keeping in mind the many invaluable comments received from students, colleagues, and reviewers.
Key features include the following:
• The art program continues to undergo revision and refinement with each edition. All of the illustrations are full color, highlight important facts, and show anatomy in relation to clinical medicine and surgery. A great effort has been made to further improve clarity of labeling and to place illustrations on the pages being viewed as the illustrations are cited in the text.
• New overview illustrations of the sensory and motor innervation of the upper and lower limbs facilitate integration.
• A description of the structure and function of the enteric nervous system and its unique role in the innervation of the digestive tract has been added that highlights important new information about this system’s
structure and function.
• New surface anatomy photographs of clinical procedures and their relevant anatomy emphasize the importance of knowledge of clinical anatomy.
• More illustrated clinical correlations, known as “clinical blue boxes,” have been included to help students understand the practical value of anatomy. In response to our readers’ suggestions, the clinical boxes
have been grouped. They are also classified by the following icons to indicate the type of clinical information covered:
Anatomical variations. These blue boxes feature anatomical variations that may be encountered in the dissection lab or in practice, emphasizing the clinical importance of awareness of such variations.
Life cycle. These blue boxes emphasize prenatal developmental factors that affect postnatal anatomy and anatomical phenomena specifically associated with stages of life—childhood, adolescence,
adult, and advanced age.
Trauma icon. The effect of traumatic events—such as fractures of bones or dislocations of joints—on normal anatomy and the clinical manifestations and dysfunction resulting from such injuries are featured
in these blue boxes.
Diagnostic procedures icon. Anatomical features and observations that play a role in physical diagnosis are targeted in these blue boxes.
Surgical procedures. These blue boxes address such topics as the anatomical basis of surgical procedures, such as the planning of incisions and the anatomical basis of regional anesthesia.
Pathology. The effect of disease on normal anatomy, such as cancer of the breast, and anatomical structures or principles involved in the confinement or dissemination of disease within the body are the
types of topics covered in these blue boxes.
• Surface anatomy is integrated into the discussion of each region to demonstrate the relationship between anatomy and physical examination, diagnosis, and clinical procedures.
• Medical images of radiographic, computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and ultrasonographic studies have been included, often with correlative illustrations. Current diagnostic imaging techniques demonstrate anatomy as it is often viewed clinically.
• Student resources, including case studies accompanied by clinic anatomical problems and USMLE-style multiple-choice questions, are available to students online at http://thePoint.lww.com/MooreECA6e,
providing a convenient and comprehensive means of self-testing and review.
• Instructors may contact their sales representative through http://thePoint.lww.com/MooreECA6e for information about accessing the instructor resources, including images, for use in their teaching and
course materials.
The terminology adheres to the Terminologia Anatomica (1998) approved by the International Federation of Associations of Anatomists (IFAA). The official English equivalent terms are used throughout the
present edition. When new terms are introduced, however, the Latin forms as used in Europe, Asia, and other parts of the world appear in parentheses.
The roots and derivation of terms are included to help students understand the meaning of the terminology. Eponyms, although not endorsed by the IFAA, appear in parentheses to assist students during their clinical studies.
The parent of this book, Clinically Oriented Anatomy (COA), is recommended as a resource for more detailed descriptions of human anatomy and its relationship and importance to medicine and surgery.
Moore’s Essential Clinical Anatomy, in addition to its own unique illustrations and manuscript, has utilized materials from Clinically Oriented Anatomy and Grant’s Atlas of Anatomy.
We again welcome your comments and suggestions for improvements in future editions.
