Comprehensive Guides for Mastering Anatomy and Medical Terminology

Mastering medical terminology is essential for success in medicine, nursing, and allied health professions—but true expertise requires more than memorization. Whether you are a student or a professional, any medical student, doctor, or nurse should have this handy reference tool in his or her bookshelf!

Anatomy Terminology Reference Guide

The Anatomy Terminology Reference Guide is designed for use with Anatomy Reference Guide (9781423222781). This guide provides answers to essential questions, such as: "What is the “central sulcus” within the brain?" or "What do “sebaceous glands” secrete?" These questions—as well as many more—are answered through the comprehensive lists of anatomical terms and their definitions found within our latest 6 page study guide.

The guide’s easy-to-use format includes sections on each area of the human body and its accompanying terms; every word list is alphabetized so that users can find what they need quickly. Additionally, the guide is a great companion to our Anatomy QuickStudy® guide.
