Written by an experienced and well-respected physician and professor, this new volume combines the entire previous four books, Ultrasonic Topographical and Pathotopographical Anatomy, and its three sequels, also available from Wiley-Scrivener, presenings the ultrasonic topographical and pathotopographical anatomy of the entire body, offering further detail into these important areas for use by medical professionals.

This comprehensive and exhaustive medical atlas of topographic and pathotopographic human anatomy is a fundamental and practically important book designed for doctors of all specializations and students of medical schools. Here you can find almost everything that is connected with the topographic and pathotopographic human anatomy, including original graphs of logical structures of topographic anatomy and development of congenital abnormalities, topography of different areas in layers, pathotopography, computer and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of topographic and pathotopographic anatomy. You can also find here new theoretical and practical sections of topographic anatomy developed by the author himself which are published for the first time. They are practically important for mastering the technique of operative interventions and denying possibility of iatrogenic complications during operations.

This important new volume will be valuable to physicians, junior physicians, medical residents, lecturers in medicine, and medical students alike, either as a textbook or as a reference. It is a must-have for any physician's library.

ULTRASONIC TOPOGRAPHICAL AND PATHOTOPOGRAPHICAL ANATOMY

Topography and Pathotopography of the Head

The chapter on the ultrasonic topography and pathotopographical anatomy of the head includes layer-by-layer topography of the visceral and cerebral craniums with the cross-sectional imaging of the head.

Ultrasonic images of external and internal bone lamellae, vessels of the subcutaneous layer, skin, and subcutaneous fat, depressed compression and linear fractures are demonstrated. Ultrasonic images of the medial cerebral artery, infundibulum, posterior communicating artery, pons cerebelli, medulla oblongata, anterior inferior cerebellar artery, basilar artery, anterior cerebral artery, posterior cerebral artery, and olfactory tract are verified based on the topographical anatomy of the basilar region of the cranium.

The deep facial area contains the internal wing muscle, mandibulum, and submandibular salivary gland; the oral cavity contains the tongue, peripharyngeal space, and posterior veil of the soft palate, as well as the superficial temporal artery, auriculotemporal nerve, maxillary artery, and middle meningeal artery. The ultrasonic images of the internal and external muscles are shown.

Images of the parotid gland, superficial cervical lymph nodes, and common carotid artery are presented.

Linear fracture is associated with the external bone lamella of the area of intact bone, with the intracranial space, and the hypoechogenic track. Under conditions of tamponade of the fourth ventricle of cerebrum with transition to the pons cerebelli, a blood clot is revealed in the vicinity of the clinoid plate at the pyramid apex of the temporal bone. The intraventricular blood clot can be pathotopographically associated with the left lateral ventricle, whereas liquid blood is observed at the lumen of the right lateral ventricle.

The atlas also contains images of the pathotopographical anatomy of the intraventricular hemorrhage, hematoma in the thalamus, frontobasal intracerebral hematoma, and acute epidural hematoma in the left parieto-occipital space accompanied by the phenomenon of the “boundary amplification”.

Thus, the ultrasonic topographic anatomy of the head provides the basis for the research into the pathotopographical anatomy of a given pathology and determines specific diagnostic features of injuries and/ or volume structures.
