Written by an experienced and well-respected physician and professor, this new volume combines the entire previous four books, Ultrasonic Topographical and Pathotopographical Anatomy, and its three sequels, also available from Wiley-Scrivener, presenings the ultrasonic topographical and pathotopographical anatomy of the entire body, offering further detail into these important areas for use by medical professionals. This comprehensive and exhaustive medical atlas of topographic and pathotopographic human anatomy is a fundamental and practically important book designed for doctors of all specializations and students of medical schools. Here you can find almost everything that is connected with the topographic and pathotopographic human anatomy, including original graphs of logical structures of topographic anatomy and development of congenital abnormalities, topography of different areas in layers, pathotopography, computer and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of topographic and pathotopographic anatomy. You can also find here new theoretical and practical sections of topographic anatomy developed by the author himself which are published for the first time. They are practically important for mastering the technique of operative interventions and denying possibility of iatrogenic complications during operations. This important new volume will be valuable to physicians, junior physicians, medical residents, lecturers in medicine, and medical students alike, either as a textbook or as a reference. It is a must-have for any physician's library.

Topographical and Pathotopographical Medical Atlas of the Human Body is a fundamental and practically important book designed for doctors of all specializations and students at medical schools. The atlas contains almost everything connected with the topographic and pathotopographic human anatomy, topography of different areas in layers, pathotopography, variant, normal, computer and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of topographic and pathotopographic anatomy. Also presented in the atlas are new theoretical and practical sections of topographic anatomy developed by the author; these are published for the first time. They are of practical importance in mastering the technique of operative interventions and denying the possibility of iatrogenic complications during operations.
Images of individual and age-related changes in human organs are presented according to variant topographic anatomy. Topographic anatomy describes holotopy, skeletopy, organ syntopy and main anatomic formations, fascial compartments, cellular spaces, neurovascular bundles, collateral circulation, sensor and motor parts of nerve trunks. Pathotopographical anatomy is shown on typical pathology examples in various fields.
It is important to visualize topographical anatomy structures not only on a corpse, but also on patients who have undergone surgical interventions. These data were obtained using computerized MRI topography, transillumination of organs and tissues, pathotopography and ultrasound topography.
Currently, there are no modern atlases in the world for clinical topographic and pathotopographic anatomy. There are several reasons for this. Firstly, this subject has been studied only in Russia and Hungary. In other countries, it is either absent or present in related disciplines, such as anatomy or surgery. A number of sections, such as pathotopographic, variant, normal topographic anatomy, transillumination, and vital topographic and pathotopographic anatomy on sick and healthy people were developed by the author of this atlas for the first time.
This atlas can serve as reference in the daily work of theoretical and practical physiologists and pathophysiologists, anatomists and typographic anatomists, pathologists, therapists, surgeons, obstetricians and gynecologists, neurologists and dermatovenerologists, radiation diagnostitions, anesthesiologists, otolaryngologists, trauma surgeons, ortho-pedologists, pediatricians, and dentists, as well as those in narrow specialties, such as cardiovascular surgeons, urologists, plastic surgeons, neurosurgeons, etc.
The topographic and pathotopographic anatomy presented can be subdivided into surgical, anatomy, therapy, dental and pediatric. Specific and non-specific features of pathotopography and normal variants have already been found and are presented in the atlas; normal anatomy, divided into pathological, ultrasound topographic and pathotopographic anatomy, is established in the book.
Topographic clinical anatomy changes with the disease and recovery during iatrogenic manipulations, surgical and therapeutic treatment. That is why some of these points are described in the atlas.
Our atlas of topographic and pathotopographic anatomy is a full-colored handbook for students and doctors in almost all specialties. It covers all the organs and tissues of the human body. Its fundamental and practical importance is that topography and patho-topograpy are presented for the first time in vivo. These sections (ultrasound topography and pathotopography, transillumination topography and pathotopography) are of great practical importance both for early diagnosis and for providing the right treatment, including proper surgical tactics. They are important for surgeons in planning and performing numerous surgical operations. The author of the atlas has a unique museum of operative surgery at the Academy, which is visited by doctors and students from all over the world. Some exhibits from this museum are presented in our atlas. They are normal and pathotopographical surgical anatomy, electrified stands and steps of surgical intervention on the complex of formalin preparations. This three-track museum is dedicated to typical and atypical surgical interventions, as well as the author´s operations with use of the author´s original tools and techniques. Nothing like this currently exists in the world. It is reflected in the atlas and has great educational and practical importance both in surgery and medicine. There are more than a hundred complexes in the museum which were developed and collected on the operations on various organs and tissues in surgery, dentistry, pediatric surgery, thoracic surgery, urology, and other areas and organs. Thus, surgical anatomy became particular for practical doctors of various specialties. In modern medicine, major problems are late diagnosis, false positive and false negative diagnostic results, and stage and size of acute pathology, which can lead to wrong treatment, mortality and disability of patients, and also to recurrence of the disease, ineffective treatment, wrong prognosis and incorrect prevention of post-operative complications in the short term and the long term. A gold standard of diagnostic and treatment, unfortunately, does not include appropriate and effective control of the diagnosis and treatment, which needs to be developed.
Comparative analysis of СT scan, MRI and pathotogram, including vital transilluminatory and ultrasound ones, revealed benefits of our vital monitoring method, which is reflected in the atlas. It provides more information and specifics on malignant and benign tumor, on degenerative, dystrophic, inflammatory processes, traumas and its complications. In the atlas there are clinical data reversible and irreversible of regional blood circulation disorder with focal pathology (adenoma, cyst, breast and thyroid cancer, vessel stenosis, intestinal paresis, etc.). Methods like PET, MRI and X-ray are highly sensitive but they cannot guide a doctor live during an operation in tumor topography. Maintenance of the surgery with these methods is not possible, which leads to iatrogenic complications: bleed, damage of lactiferous duct, and false results, and also causes an increase in the extent of the operation, recurrence and other complications. Pathotopograms mentioned in the atlas are important to determine surgical access, to visualize normal and changed lymph nodes, and to know the required extent of the operation. Ultrasound pathotopograms of focal arthritis and rheumatoid arthritis mentioned in the atlas revealed new specific differential signs of pathology, which is of practical importance in the treatment and prevention of iatrogenic rheumatic complications and in screening studies.
Our work is devoted to the memory of patients who have died from the lack of scientific achievements, lifetime pathotopograms and a new diagnostic technology. One might be surprised at the very possibility of such support in the pre-operative diagnosis, surgery and postoperative treatment. But this technological support not only accompanies, but also helps the surgeon to choose between conservative and other tactics of treating the patient. We hope that this full-color book will prolong life in patients and improve the skill of doctors and students in diagnosing and preventing diseases. Between the doctor and the patient should stand medical equipment, but it should not block them from each other. A doctor armed only with a scalpel is dangerous for the patient. A doctor armed with modern and original technology is dangerous for his illness.
Managers of our pathotopographic, transilluminative and ultrasound technology already operate in urgent and scheduled medicine. Our atlas and devices will be used by future doctors. Now is the time to speed up and implement rational innovations, and so it is necessary to start with the government, rather than finish with it. Three periods of illness – preoperative, surgery and post-operative, as well as three periods of life – childhood, maturity and old age are inseparable from each other, because they are associated with one person, one illness. As in life a wise mentor is needed during treatment, surgery and the post-operative period; this cannot be accomplished without the wise, lifetime functional pathotopographic results presented in our atlas. Flexible new medical technologies presented to the reader put them in a position to guarantee the patient’s vitality.
The chapter on the ultrasonic topography and pathotopographical anatomy of the head includes layer-by-layer topography of the visceral and cerebral craniums with the cross-sectional imaging of the head.
Ultrasonic images of external and internal bone lamellae, vessels of the subcutaneous layer, skin, and subcutaneous fat, depressed compression and linear fractures are demonstrated. Ultrasonic images of the medial cerebral artery, infundibulum, posterior communicating artery, pons cerebelli, medulla oblongata, anterior inferior cerebellar artery, basilar artery, anterior cerebral artery, posterior cerebral artery, and olfactory tract are verified based on the topographical anatomy of the basilar region of the cranium.
The deep facial area contains the internal wing muscle, mandibulum, and submandibular salivary gland; the oral cavity contains the tongue, peripharyngeal space, and posterior veil of the soft palate, as well as the superficial temporal artery, auriculotemporal nerve, maxillary artery, and middle meningeal artery. The ultrasonic images of the internal and external muscles are shown.
Images of the parotid gland, superficial cervical lymph nodes, and common carotid artery are presented.
Linear fracture is associated with the external bone lamella of the area of intact bone, with the intracranial space, and the hypoechogenic track. Under conditions of tamponade of the fourth ventricle of cerebrum with transition to the pons cerebelli, a blood clot is revealed in the vicinity of the clinoid plate at the pyramid apex of the temporal bone. The intraventricular blood clot can be pathotopographically associated with the left lateral ventricle, whereas liquid blood is observed at the lumen of the right lateral ventricle.
The atlas also contains images of the pathotopographical anatomy of the intraventricular hemorrhage, hematoma in the thalamus, frontobasal intracerebral hematoma, and acute epidural hematoma in the left parieto-occipital space accompanied by the phenomenon of the “boundary amplification”.
Thus, the ultrasonic topographic anatomy of the head provides the basis for the research into the pathotopographical anatomy of a given pathology and determines specific diagnostic features of injuries and/ or volume structures.

A wide variety of methods can be used to study the topographical anatomy: layer-by-layer preparation, transverse frozen sections, “ice anatomy”, injection method, corrosion method. Intra-organ and extraorgan intravital transillumination, palpation, percussion, auscultation, X-ray, computer tomography, magnetic resonance imaging, and ultrasonic tests are used as intravital methods. Topographical anatomy can be studied on the basis of pictures illustrating the topographical anatomy and providing information about standard locations of organs and adjacent blood vessels, as well as the morphological structure of organs. Cadaver studies provide volume images of organs. However, in this case, the organ and its structure are distorted because of the effect of fixative agents. The topographical anatomy of the organ during functioning remains obscure.
Ultrasonic imaging is based on reflection of ultrasonic waves from the interface of tissues with different acoustic properties. Ultrasonography is effective for testing the objects containing soft tissues. Such objects contain considerable amounts of fluids and interfaces between tissues with different acoustic properties providing high quality of sonographic imaging. Ultrasonic testing can be used for real-time individual examination of anatomical variability. Thus, ultrasonic tests are very useful for studying the topographical anatomy of the thyroid.
Pictures illustrating the topographical anatomy of the thyroid provide standard images of the thyroid and adjacent anatomical structures: blood vessels (superior thyroid vein, inferior thyroid artery, vein of uncus, common carotid artery, internal jugular vein), muscles (sternohyoid muscle, sternothyroid muscle, subcutaneous neck muscle, sternocleidomastoid muscle), organs (esophagus), and fasciae.
The possibility of ultrasonic imaging of objects depends on the selected cross-section plane. The use of the cross-section of the left lobe provides, in addition to imaging of skin and subcutaneous fat, information about the structure and shape of the lobe, esophagus, common carotid artery, internal jugular vein, and inferior thyroid artery. The superior neck fasciae and undifferentiated muscles of the neck can also be seen. If the sensor is located perpendicular to the median line, the thyroid shape and the thyroid isthmus thickness can be estimated. The use of the longitudinal cross-section of the lobe provides information about the longitudinal dimensions of the parts of the organ. In addition, the ultrasonic tests provide estimation of the topography of blood supply to the thyroid.
The positive feature of the ultrasonic method, as used for the study of topographical anatomy, is the possibility of intravital tests of individual anatomical variability, which allows developmental variants and anomalies of the thyroid to be visualized. This method allows the layer-by-layer topographical anatomy of the neck to be studied. It also provides imaging of the inflammation processes on the walls and parenchyma of organs. It is important to note that this method is non-invasive and low-traumatic.
Ultrasonic topographical anatomy has a considerable practical significance in surgery. Preliminary ultrasonic examination makes it possible to avoid iatrogenic complications. It also provides differential diagnosis of normal and pathological structures in topographical anatomy. The echography contributes to the development and evaluation of new methods of surgical access. Thus, the ultrasonic tests hold much promise for the study of the topographical anatomy of the neck.
