Netter’s Anatomy Flash Cards
Congratulations! You have just purchased the most popular and comprehensive set
of anatomy fl ash cards available. Netter’s Anatomy Flash Cards offer a unique learning
resource to supplement the anatomy textbook, atlas, or dissection materials used in
medical, dental, nursing, allied health, and undergraduate courses in human anatomy. This
set of cards draws on the timeless medical illustrations of Frank H. Netter, MD, and includes
not only the musculoskeletal system but also a review of important nerves, vessels, and
visceral structures not commonly found in traditional fl ash card sets.
Each 4 × 6 full-color card details human anatomy as only Netter can. The set is
organized regionally in accordance with Netter’s widely popular Atlas of Human Anatomy
(i.e., Head and Neck; Back and Spinal Cord; Thorax; Abdomen; Pelvis and Perineum; Upper
Extremity; Lower Extremity). Within each region, cards are arranged sequentially as follows:
Bones and Joints; Muscles; Nerves; Vessels; and Viscera. Moreover, the image on each
card is referenced to the original plate in the Atlas of Human Anatomy, 5
th
Edition. Because
each section opening card is slightly taller, you can easily pull out an entire section of cards
for study. In addition, a corner of each card is prepunched so that you can insert it on the
enclosed metal ring to keep an entire section of cards in the correct order.
Each card includes a Comment section, which provides relevant information about the
structure(s) depicted on the front of the card, including detailed information for muscle
origins, insertions, actions, and innervation. Most cards also contain a Clinical section that
highlights the clinical relevance of the anatomy depicted on the front of the card. Bonus
online content is available at www.studentconsult.com using the scratch-off PIN code on
the fi rst card. Online content includes over 300 multiple-choice questions to test your
retention of the material. Over 20 bonus fl ash cards from other card sets within the Netter
family of fl ash cards are also available on Student Consult. These cards offer an accurate
and ready source of anatomic information in an easy-to-use and portable format.
Consensus regarding the specifi c anatomic details of such topics as muscle attachments
or the range of motion of joints can vary considerably among anatomy textbooks. In fact,
human anatomic variation is common and normal. Consequently, the anatomic detail
provided on these cards represents commonly accepted information whenever possible.
I am indebted to and wish to credit the following superb sources and their authors or
editors:
Gray’s Anatomy for Students, 2nd ed. Drake R, Vogl W, Mitchell A. Philadelphia, Elsevier,
2010.
Gray’s Anatomy, 39th ed. Standring S. Philadelphia, Elsevier, 2005.

Hollinshead’s Textbook of Anatomy, 5th ed. Rosse C, Gaddum-Rosse P. Philadelphia,

My hope is that the Netter Flash Cards will make learning more enjoyable and
productive, and that the study of anatomy will inspire you with a sense of awe and respect
for the human form.

Comment: The skull bones are fused together at immovable, fi brous
joints, such as the sutures.
The 2 general classes of skull bones are cranial bones (8 bones),
which enclose the brain, and facial bones (14 bones). The 8 cranial
bones are the frontal, occipital, ethmoid, and sphenoid bones, a pair
of temporal bones, and a pair of parietal bones.
Associated bones of the skull include the auditory ossicles (3 in each
middle ear cavity) and the unpaired hyoid bone. The skull and
