Grant’s Dissector

Alan J. Detton

Grant's Dissector provides step-by-step human cadaver dissection procedures for students to perform the dissections in lab and to recognize important relationships revealed through dissection. Each chapter is consistently organized beginning with a Dissection Overview, followed by detailed Dissection Instructions, and concluding with a Dissection Follow-up. The Dissection Overview provides a blueprint of what needs to be accomplished during the dissection session and includes relevant surface anatomy as well as concise coverage of osteology. Dissection Instructions offer a logical sequence and numbered steps for the dissection. The Dissection Follow-up emphasizes important features of the dissection and encourages students to reflect on and synthesize the information. TEXT: - Focus on consistency of text- Alan working to improve consistency with headings & intro paragraphs & figure labeling (making sure bold terms are actually shown on figures) - Check accuracy as highlighted by Bill (William Schwartz) - List clinical correlates at the beginning of the chapters now. Blurb & list at beginning of chapters telling what Clinical Correlations will be in chapter. - Update the clinical figures and stats (find articles whenever a number/percentage is cited) - Modify approach to atlas cross-references: - Focus on reference images from Grant's Atlas to link the two texts more closely convert references from page number to figure numbers for better alignment/linking in Grant's Anatomy Lab and Health Library - Remove Netter Atlas cross-references from print and digital versions (TBD) - Remove Rohen Atlas and Lippincott Atlas cross-references from print version include guide in Instructor Resources, include references and images in Grant's Anatomy Lab, include references in VST e-book (TBD) - Switching order Skeletal and Surface Anatomy sections so that Skeletal comes first - b/c students palpate bony structure (need to know structure), then know where to make skin incisions - makes more sense from lab perspective - Within dissection sequence/steps figure reference will be just on first step and not repeat same fig on subsequent steps Artwork: - Planning on 5 new and ~10 adapted illustrations (e.g., adding skin flaps, additional/different labels) - Skin flaps not removal
