Lippincott's Illustrated Q&A Review of Anatomy and Embryology PDF
Gross anatomy and Embryology are two of the most anxiety provoking subjects for most medical students that I know. A great knowledge base in these subjects in crucial for understanding the other courses in a medical school curriculum. Reinforcement of concepts that are present in Anatomy and Embryology courses is the best way to ensure thorough understanding and long-term retention of these subjects. Throughout my medical school career, I have not found a better book in Anatomy and Embryology that actively and concisely allows students to review these hard subjects.
The book is organized into 10 chapters of ~ 50 questions. Each chapter presents USMLE board style Anatomy and Embryology questions of different anatomical divisions of the body. The questions are in vignette form and are identical to the questions in the NBME Anatomy and Embryology subject shelf exam and the USMLE Step 1 exam. Most questions have an associated anatomical figure ranging from drawings and diagrams to very high yield and high resolution CT, MR, XR, and angiograms. Every question has a detailed answer explanation for right AND wrong answers. The questions featured in this book also vary from basic concept that test high yield facts to complex 2nd and 3rd order questions that make the student connect concepts from different subjects to anatomy and embryology.
I used this book to study and review clinical anatomy and embryology for my USMLE Step 1. I had about 25 gross anatomy/structure questions on my exam, and each one was on a concept that was presented in a similar question that was presented in this book! The sheer amount of radiological and pathological images that are in this book simulate the exam style perfectly.
