Sectional Anatomy for Imaging Professionals 4th Edition by Lorrie L. Kelley & Connie Petersen (2018)

Sectional Anatomy for Imaging Professionals, 4th Edition by Lorrie L. Kelley MS RT(R) and Connie Petersen MS RT(R) is the most comprehensive and visually rich sectional anatomy text available for radiologic technology and imaging sciences students. Published by Mosby/Elsevier in February 2018 and rated 4.7 stars by over 472 reviewers, this text provides a highly visual approach to the sectional anatomy of the entire body.

Side-by-side presentations of actual diagnostic images from both MRI and CT modalities and corresponding anatomic line drawings illustrate the planes of anatomy most commonly demonstrated by diagnostic imaging. Easy-to-follow descriptions detail the location and function of anatomy, while clearly labeled images help students confidently identify anatomic structures during clinical examinations. With more than 1,500 high-quality images and detailed line drawings demonstrating sectional anatomy for every body plane commonly imaged in the clinical setting, this is the one reference needed to consistently produce the best possible diagnostic images. Updated summary tables simplify and organize key information in each chapter.

Key topics include: sectional anatomy of the head and brain, spine, thorax, abdomen, pelvis, and extremities as visualized on CT and MRI; anatomical terminology; cross-sectional planes and imaging planes; and clinical correlation throughout. An essential resource for students in radiologic technology, MRI, CT, and diagnostic medical imaging programs preparing for ARRT (CT and MRI) advanced certification examinations and the ARDMS registry.
