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 Demonstrate how to find muscular plane and reflect all together. Clean superficial veins from the deep side perhaps? Ask Art Dalley how these are approached and taught, far faster to remove in one large piece Lateral approach to the neck (2 new illustrations) Emphasize fascial planes Similar approach to new Netter image by Carlos M. Other ideas for this or next edition - will narrow down: Brain white matter tracts Brain removal with eyes intact Lateral orbit Lateral approach to cranial nerves, same side as lateral neck or contralateral side for stability Lateral approach to brain to keep pituitary intact. After lateral orbit? Throacoabdominal wall reflection Pelvis block Consider Systemic approaches Lung and heart block removal Anterior approach to the spinal cord Transgender dissection/ module on the process of gender reassignment. Removal of heart ventricles Grant's Dissection Videos Suggestions: Dependent on JW Player enhancements: Add jump points times - transition screens already included in videos (author to send) 2x speed Include direction marker in videos Analyze improper technique Time stamps of videos in text and/or hyperlink digital version(s)? May add alternate techniques Separate clinical anatomy videos proposal to come - to supplement Grant's Dissection Videos for anatomy course and to be used in pre-clerkship anatomy sessions.
