Educational approaches and tools
The atlas is typically organised by anatomical region, allowing for direct comparisons between different imaging techniques on facing pages. Regional Organisation
Images are numbered or lettered to keep the visual field clean, with legends provided for self-testing and identification.
Medical students and clinicians often struggle to translate traditional, textbook anatomical illustrations into what they actually see on complex grey-scale radiological scans (like MRI or CT). This feature directly bridges that cognitive gap. How the Feature Works Side-by-Side Synchronized Viewing
: Includes high-resolution plain film radiography, Computed Tomography (CT), Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), ultrasound (US), nuclear medicine, and angiography.
Thus, the imaging atlas is best used alongside traditional atlases, dissection, and clinical experience.
