Visualizing The Upper Digestive Tract There are few medical illustrations as famous as those drawn by the late Frank Netter for CIBA. Novartis Medical Education has performed a favor for medical, nursing and allied health students and practitioners everywhere by committing these former book illustrations to slides. An aerospace physician from Kunsan Air Base in the Republic of Korea writes in an Amazon.com review: "I frequently use the Netter series, not just for my own personal reference, but to illustrate to patients the anatomy, as well as the pathology of disease processes... Volume 3, part I of the CIBA collection of Medical Illustrations examines in great detail the upper digestive tract. There 172 slides of anatomical illustrations in this set alone. One can appreciate the depthth and detail by looking at a sampling of the list of slides that are in the set: Anatomy of Mouth and Pharynx 29 Slides
Mandible Temporomandibular Joint Mouth: Sections Through Mouth and Jaw Fauces Histology Pharynx Pharyngeal Musculature Lymphatic Drainage Anatomy of Esophagus 13 Slides
Contours and Normal Constrictions Musculature Blood Supply Venous Drainage Lymphatic Drainage Innervation Diseases of Esophagus 19 Slides
Double Aortic Arch; Dysphagia Lusoria Plummer-Vinson Syndrome Diverticula Inferior Esophageal Ring Formation Cardiospasm Peptic Esophagitis Marginal Esophageal Ulcer Peptic Ulcer in Gastric-Lined Esophagus Foreign Bodies Stricture Rupture and Perforation Varicosis Benign Tumors Malignant Tumors Diseases of Stomach and Duodenum 32 Slides
Diverticulum of Stomach Diverticula of Duodenum Trauma of Stomach Gastritis Gastric Ulcer: Giant Ulcer Duodenitis; Duodenal Ulcer Duodenal Ulcer Distal to Duodenal Cap; Multiple Ulcers Acute Perforation and Bleeding Gastric Ulcer Complications of Duodenal Ulcers Benign Tumors of Stomach Carcinoma of Stomach: Since the FDA has recently approved new procedures for the treatment of gastroesophageal reflux disease anyone unsure of the anatomical structures of the upper digestive tract could "do no harm" by looking for a moment at this set of slides. The slides are available for purchase from many vendors.
