With your copy of the Frank H. Netter, MD, Atlas of Human
Anatomy, you own a collection of some of the most wellknown
depictions of human anatomy in medicine and
healthcare. In addition to the famous work of Dr. Netter,
with your copy of this 7th edition, you also have access to
nearly 100 painted pieces by Carlos A. G. Machado, MD,
one of the foremost medical illustrators working today. Dr.
Machado’s contributions to the Atlas highlight important
views of anatomy that have become more clinically relevant
in recent years— anatomic views that have resulted from
improved dissection techniques and modern imaging.
In addition, you have access to more than 50 carefully
selected radiologic images that help bridge the idealized
illustrated anatomy with living anatomy viewed in the
clinic.
While numerous updates have been made to the
illustrated plates and tables to make them easier to learn
from, the most significant changes to this edition include:
Introductory Section
To fulfill the requests from many students and fans of
Netter’s Atlas, we have added a new opening section

Anatomy!
