Few Useful Radiology Anatomy Atlases Websites
1.
Normal Radiologic Anatomy is a basic primer on Anatomy designed for the Radiologist,
at http://www.vh.org/Providers/TeachingFiles/NormalRadAnatomy/Text/RadM1title.html
. This site is authored by a team headed by J Livermore and W Erkonen and the
online atlas covers X-Ray, CT, MRI and Ultrasound. In essence, the image material
delivers information on anatomical areas such as head and neck, thorax, abdomen,
pelvis, upper and lower extremity.
2. Radiologic Anatomy Browser
is sourced from the Uniformed Services
University and is accessible at
http://rad.usuhs.mil/rad/iong/index.html . The Anatomy Browser is like an outline with the facility for expanding or collapsing
levels. The material produced by S Rudinsky and JG Smirniotopoulos is catalogued
into regions such as Head and Neck, Back and Upper Extremity, Chest etc. The topics
are comprehensively covered and a check list is an added bonus at the end of sections.
3.
Radiology Anatomy is accessible at
http://sprojects.mmip.mcgill.ca/radiology/ The material covers regions including
thorax, pelvis, abdomen, spine and extremities, head and neck. Besides this there
are online quizzes to reinforce on Pelvis, Abdomen, Spine and Extremities, Head
and Neck and a separate Quiz on Pathology available too.
4. Radiologic
Anatomy Images from Emory University is accessible as online from http://www.emory.edu/ANATOMY/Radiology/Home.Page.MENU.HTML
. The amterial is available in four "conferences" ranging from Limbs to Abdomen
and Pelvis. The first conference has images on Knee describing the various ligaments,
Shoulder and the with rotator cuff tendons etc
5. HyperBrain
at http://library.med.utah.edu/kw/hyperbrain/ has a variety of features focusing principally on Neuroanatomy. Besides the site
has a brain atlas and an interesting Pathway Quiz at the end, too.
6. Thoracic Anatomy at http://www.chestx-ray.com/Anatomy/Anatomy.html has an assortment of Radiology Anatomy Atlases. The site highlights the dictum
that "radiographic interpretation requires a firm knowledge of normal anatomy
and the myriad variants that may simulate disease". This webpage hyperlinks to
five principal material rich in graphics : Cross-sectional Anatomy, Mediastinal
Anatomy, Inflated Lungs - Virtual Reality, Segmental Projections and Introduction
to Cardiothoracic Imaging
7. Radiology Anatomy Models from University of Washington
is a set of Radiology and anatomy teaching files, are available at http://www.rad.washington.edu/academics/academic-sections/msk/teaching-materials/radiology-anatomy-teaching-modules The material covers areas like normal knee anatomy, normal distal thigh anatomy
muscles, radiographic anatomy of Upper and Lower extremity muscle etc. Added features
in this atlas include the radiographic evaluation of hallux valgus, ultrasound
of the Shoulder, which are all illustrative items . In addition, a TMJ tutorial
is accessible at http://uwmsk.org/tmj/
8. Radiology Anatomy Atlas at http://web.mac.com/rlivingston/Site/Radiology_Anatomy_Atlas.html
is an atlas created by Robert Livingston. The site offers viewing of
labeled images of human anatomy, using a RAA Viewer, a free program,
available for Macintosh and Windows. The current MAC and Windows
version of the viewer is sized 42 MB and 34 MB. An image or series of
images is accessed by the downloaded viewer program into a PC. A
downloadable manual, offers better understanding of the viewer
program. "The program is bundled with a basic set of axial
illustrations of the human body published in Eycleshymer's
