Netter's Anatomy Atlas Now Available as iPad App

Elsevier Inc. has turned Netter's Anatomy Atlas into an iPad app with full-color anatomic illustrations that allow users focus on the need-to-know anatomy specific to a course or area of specialty and interest choosing from over 500 illustrated plates.

Those who are interested in human anatomy can now download a simple iPad app and use Dr. Netter's most famous illustrations of human anatomy as their intuitive and interactive study guide.

There are 531 Netter Plates to choose from, all available in the 5th edition of the famous Atlas of Human Anatomy, illustrated by master medical illustrator Frank H. Netter, MD.

The lead editor of the Netter Atlas of Human Anatomy, 5th edition, John T. Hansen, explains the benefits of the app, saying, "Imagine carrying an interactive authoritative guide on human anatomy wherever you go that allows you to study, quiz yourself and take notes on the fly!"

"No one does it better than Netter and his brilliant color illustrations literally 'jump' off the iPad screen with a luminescence that is unsurpassed. Test drive this App and you'll open a whole new world of anatomical knowledge with just the tap or swipe of your finger tip," said Hansen, PhD, Associate Dean and Professor at the University of Rochester Medical Center.

Charles describes the app as being “rooted” in their deep customer insight research.

“The ability to access these world-famous Netter images in a non-linear fashion in the app, and to customize the user experience of the images, are aspects of functionality with strong market demand," he said.
