Reviews

'We've read the book at RAUK and we thought Anatomy for the FRCA has an engaging, accurate and accessible approach to anatomical revision. The content for areas specific to regional anaesthesia is well presented, combining clearly labelled diagrams of cadaver dissections alongside ultrasound cross-sectional images and succinct clinical information relevant to each block. We highly recommend this for those studying for the FRCA or wanting to brush up on the foundational knowledge or regional anaesthesia.'
