"Everybody needs an Atlas..."

Recognised as one of the books that every anaesthetist and anaesthetist in training must have, the Atlas of Regional Anesthesia is back in a beautiful 3rd edition.

This fully updated and revised new edition of this full-colour Atlas will help ensure you perform nerve blocks accurately and successfully in all regions of the body. Step-by-step illustrations demonstrate each technique in a simple, easy-to-follow manner. An emphasis on cross-sectional anatomy, illustrations of gross and surface anatomy, and CT and MRI scans will help you develop a three-dimensional understanding essential to successful regional anaesthesia.

• Organizes each chapter's information under three headings: Perspective, Placement, and Pearls.
• Features color illustrations of cross-sectional, gross, and surface anatomy, as well as CT and MRI scans.
• Suggests appropriate drugs and their dosages.
• Covers all regions of the body.
