Details: Research in Anatomy: A Comprehensive Guide in Anatomical Sciences and Education aims to provide a comprehensive overview of contemporary anatomical research methods. It fills a critical gap in anatomical research methodologies. While many texts cover general research methods or specific topics, there is a lack of comprehensive resources that encompass the various approaches in anatomical studies. It serves as a valuable resource for students, educators and researchers in the anatomical sciences and related disciplines.

The book is divided into two parts. Part one is the introductory section, which covers the fundamentals of anatomical research through seven chapters. It starts by providing brief descriptions and examples of various research designs and offering a step-by-step guide on how to conduct systematic literature searches. Subsequent chapters in this section compare human and animal studies in anatomical research, discuss how to conduct systematic reviews, cover essential aspects of data analysis and management in anatomical research, outline methods for sharing anatomy research findings, and highlight the vital role of cadavers in advancing anatomical knowledge and medical education. Finally, this section explores the methods and approaches used to study and improve anatomy education.

The second section explores various specialised research areas in detail. It provides guidance and insights on several topics, including developmental anatomy research, the use of surgical observations for anatomical research, and morphometric studies in anatomy. Additionally, it discusses the application of medical imaging tools for anatomical studies and the significance of macroscopic and microscopic examination and imaging techniques in neuroanatomical research. Finally, this section explores anatomical variability A research methods book that is tailored to anatomical research Presents a variety of research designs applied in anatomical research based on cadavers, surgical observations, medical imaging, morphometric studies, and microscopic studies Inspires early career anatomists to identify possible future research areas
