Sectional Anatomy for Imaging Professionals (4th Edition)

Sectional Anatomy for Imaging Professionals

Title: Sectional Anatomy for Imaging Professionals Edition: Fourth Edition Authors: Lorrie L. Kelley • Connie M. Petersen Publisher: Elsevier

Cover Design: The background is a bright sky blue, giving the cover a clean, open clinical feel. "SECTIONAL ANATOMY" dominates the top in very large, bold white spaced display type. The subtitle "For Imaging Professionals" appears in a sage green rectangular panel in white italic type, and "FOURTH EDITION" is called out in a warm orange-red block with bold white text — creating a three-color accent system of green, orange, and blue that breaks up the layout energetically. The authors' names appear in large bold white type in the lower left, the Elsevier name anchors the bottom left, and an Evolve study resources badge sits in the bottom right.

Cover Photography: A collage of five real diagnostic imaging photographs is arranged across the center of the cover, each representing a different body region and imaging modality — a spinal MRI or CT angiogram, a skull lateral view, a chest CT showing the lungs and bronchial tree, a 3D rendered CT of the foot and ankle bones, and an axial cross-sectional MRI of what appears to be the knee or shoulder joint. Together they immediately convey the book's purpose: teaching anatomy as it appears in cross-sectional and tomographic imaging.

About the Book: The leading textbook for radiologic technology and imaging students learning to identify anatomical structures as they appear on CT, MRI, and other cross-sectional imaging modalities. It bridges gross anatomy with real-world diagnostic imaging interpretation.

Audience: Radiologic technologists, CT and MRI technologists, sonographers, and imaging students.
