ISBN-10: 0781778352 | ISBN-13: 978-0781778350 | Publication Date: January 28, 2008

This set of 220 flash cards is based on the images in Color Atlas of Anatomy: A Photographic Study of the Human Body, Sixth Edition. This is the only gross anatomy flash card set that includes full-color photographs of actual cadaver dissections. The photographs realistically depict anatomic structures as seen on the cadaver, allowing students to prepare for lab dissections and study for practical laboratory exams.

On the front of each card is an image with key structures labeled. On the back of each card are hints to help identify the structure and relevant clinical pearls.

These cards are great in that they test you from exact images from the Rohen book. However, each card has only 2 or 3 items labeled. I was hoping for a lot more than that, since I am highly dependent on portable methods of self-quizzing!!!

This review is from: Rohen's Photographic Anatomy Flash Cards (Cards)

The dissections are done very well and the photographs are excellent in illustrating the complexities of details and relationships. While there is a ton of information in the actual photographs, very little is labelled. So unless you are already familiar with what is shown, it is hard to learn much from the cards themselves. I would still reccomend them because I have not seen other cards with actual cadaver photos. And the photos are very well done. They are great for clarifying information learned from other sources. But they would be a phenomenal resource with more labelling and explanatory text.

Although I haven't found a lot of time to use the flash cards, they are useful for studying gross anatomy when I can't get into the lab. The Rohen's cadaver textbook is even better because it has an index and is much more thorough.
