Thoroughly updated and revised, this eleventh edition of the text provides an understanding of anatomy in its clinical context.

Clinical Anatomy Summary

Clinical Anatomy: a Revision and Applied Anatomy for Clinical Students by Harold Ellis

Clinical Anatomy has remained the word of the same author for nearly half a century. Initially written for clinical medical students on the wards, clinics and revising for Finals, since then it has sold all over the world in hundreds of thousands and in several languages. Its success has been its constant revision to ensure it covers the student's needs. Today, it also covers the bulk of the anatomy required in the MRCS Part I, II, III and provides an excellent revision text for these candidates and medical students in a concise form with clear, easily reproduced diagrams.

Clinical Anatomy Reviews

It is remarkable that this volume, after 47 years of continuous publication, remains fresh, relevant and valuable to the latest generation of trainees...Important structures are clearly represented in line drawings, augmented by careful use of colour. Clinical Anatomy 20:582 I think a lot of students struggle with anatomy but this book makes it very understandable. The illustrations are clear and colourful and not over-complicated. The clinical features make the book more interesting and relevant. I like the compact size of this book- good for carrying around and reading in a spare moment. As far as anatomy books go, this is one of the best I have ever read. Medical Student, Keele Ellis speaks through the text with the voice of a distinguished surgeon. The information is kept clinically relevant and the book is clearly illustrated throughout. As a student, this is all you need to know. Medical Student, St. Georges This book is essential for clinical medicine, helps in both surgery and in clinics. [It] makes sense of anatomy taught at pre-clinical level and helps the reader apply their knowledge. Easy to read and clear diagrams to help your learning. Medical Student, Leicester
