Atlas of Functional Anatomy for Regional Anesthesia and Pain Medicine

The Atlas of Functional Anatomy for Regional Anesthesia and Pain Medicine is an unprecedented resource that offers a groundbreaking visual exploration of the intricate anatomy relevant to regional anesthesia and pain management. The first of its kind, this atlas presents more than 1500 high-resolution images, many of which have never been published before. These images provide unparalleled insight into the fine structure of the spinal canal, nervous plexuses, and peripheral nerves, with exceptional detail that aids in clinical practice.

What sets this atlas apart is its diverse range of imaging techniques. It includes scanning electron microscopy images of neuronal ultrastructures, macroscopic sectional anatomy, and even three-dimensional reconstructions derived from patient imaging studies. This collection of images offers a comprehensive visual reference that is invaluable to clinicians in regional anesthesia, pain management, and spine surgery. Each chapter begins with a brief introduction to the relevant anatomical subject, followed by a wealth of images that form the backbone of the book, accompanied by detailed text. This careful balance of visual material and evidence-based commentary guides readers through complex anatomical structures with clinically relevant, practical information.

Beyond its focus on anatomy, the atlas also covers important topics in the field, such as regional anesthesia equipment (needles, catheters, surgical gloves) and advanced research instruments like scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy. These topics provide readers with a broader understanding of the tools and technologies that contribute to advancements in anesthesia and pain medicine.

Designed for regional anesthesiologists, interventional pain physicians, surgeons, and other professionals in related fields, this atlas is a vital resource for anyone seeking a deeper understanding of the functional anatomy crucial to regional anesthesia and pain management. It complements traditional texts by offering detailed graphical representations that enhance learning and clinical decision-making. Whether you’re involved in regional anesthesia, interventional pain management, or spinal surgery, this atlas serves as an indispensable guide for both practical application and academic study.
