A Nursing Student's Extra Help Guide for
Anatomy
This page serves as a supplemental guide for students in the study
and understanding of anatomy. The links provide pictures,
diagrams, animations, simulations, tutorials, and virtual
dissections to help in learning anatomy. To get the most out of your
anatomy studies, you should plan to spend a fair amount of time on
it, and you should review the material often to ensure that you
remember it and that you understand it thoroughly.

and organ systems. Both studies of science have been in use since
ancient times. Anatomy has been in practice since 1600 B.C.E and
physiology since 420 B.C. These studies of biology have evolved into a
greater understanding of the complex mechanisms of the human body.

excellent full-color illustrations augmented by MRI images for added
detail to enhance the anatomy and positioning presentations. In
three volumes, it covers preliminary steps in radiography, radiation
protection, and terminology, as well as anatomy and positioning
information in separate chapters for each bone group or organ
system. High-quality images of commonly requested projections, as
well as those less commonly requested, show the reader how to
properly position the patient so the resulting radiograph provides
information needed to correctly diagnose the problem. Information is
also provided on a variety of special imaging modalities and
situations, including mobile radiography, operating room
