Board Review Series: Gross Anatomy Flash Cards

iOS iPhone

"Well worth the convenience of being able to study gross human anatomy anywhere." --ThinkAnatomy.com

***

Modality, the premier developer of learning applications for the iPhone and iPod touch, has transformed Lippincott Williams & Wilkins' popular Board Review Series Gross Anatomy Flash Cards for on-the-go course review and USMLE prep.

This application takes a clinically relevant approach to the study of gross anatomy. 250 concise flash cards highlight the need-to-know information, utilizing a short definition or phrase that triggers the recall of an answer. Each card prompts students to commit a key point to memory, allowing for high-yield review and retention of the studied concepts and structures.

Content is organized into eight sections of the body and can be used alone or as a study supplement to the full Board Review Series text.

Sections:

•Thorax
•Abdomen
•Pelvis/Perineum
•Spine
•Lower Extremity
•Upper Extremity
•Head/Neck
•Central Nervous System

Features include:

•Unique flash card interface enables fast navigation through card sets
•“Study Set” feature allows you to bookmark and save difficult or important cards for future review
•Shuffle mode for quick study within sections or with all sections
•Search functionality to help you find specific anatomical structures and terms
•Ability to add personalized notes to each card

Examples:

Question: This defect results from the fusion of the inferior poles of the kidney during development

Answer: Horseshoe kidney – this developmental defect results from an impediment to migration of the kidneys by the root of the inferior mesenteric artery; this relatively innocuous anomaly can predispose to obstruction and/or infection and occurs with increased frequency in patients having Turner’s syndrome

--

Question: Can result in the inability to extend the elbow, wrist, or digits (wrist drop) and is associated with poorly fitting crutches

Answer: Injury to the posterior cord – sometimes known as “crutch palsy” because it often results from injury to the posterior cord, primarily the radial nerve, caused by crutches that are too long
