Human Osteology and Skeletal Radiology PDF
An Atlas and Guide features nearly 700 photographs, line drawings, and radiographs demonstrating individual bones, or collections of bones, from both a distant perspective and more detailed angles. This atlas of skeletal anatomy covers general and specific anatomic terms, includes comparative images of bones in photographic and radiographic form to aid in recognition, and notes important comparisons among adult, juvenile, and fetal bones. It discusses each bone on an individual basis and describes how to “side” bones and identify fragments.
Intended as a field guide for investigations and a lab guide in gross anatomy and skeletal specimen studies, this atlas provides easy and rapid identification of bone material. It takes you far beyond the bare bones of anatomy to aid in skeletal recognition in any situation.
Description
The incorporation of a radiological aspect with the traditional photographic and graphic approaches is long overdue and makes this a valuable addition to the reference library of any skeletal or forensic anthropologist.” Thomas D. Holland, Ph.D., Scientific Director, Joint POW/MIA Accounting Command Central Identification Laboratory, Hickam Air Force Base, Hawai’i, USA “provides readers with a user-friendly and hands-on approach to identifying and siding all elements of the human skeleton. One advantage of this text over others is its clarity of skeletal landmarks as depicted in large photographs. Another advantage is the layout of the chapters in a commonsense way that minimizes the ‘seek and find’ approach common to many texts. I will certainly add this to my personal library and use it as a required text in my forensic anthropology class. combines all of the essential elements in one text.
