Anatomy

Abstract

Abstract This chapter provides ten practice multiple-choice questions (MCQs) about anatomy along with answers, explanations, and references for further reading to increase your in-depth understanding. Anatomy of the cardiovascular, cardiac, and nervous system are of prime importance to anaesthetists, so these topics are commonly covered in the written examination. However, the anatomy of other areas of the body may also be the focus of a question if, for example, vascular access is required, or ultrasound is useful. As far as possible, these questions appear as they would on a Part I paper. However, there are some publisher-defined style differences that should not affect your understanding of the questions presented here. The main differences include certain spelling conventions, when and where abbreviations are explained and then used in a question, and the presence of Oxford commas, which are present throughout this book but used only for clarification on an examination paper.</jats:p
