Atlas of Fascia Topography: published at Leipzig Anatomy.

The first fascial anatomy atlas, published in early 2015 by Prof. Carla Stecco, served as a milestone in the field of macroscopic human anatomy. It has become �a classic� in the field of fascial anatomy (see https://preview.tinyurl.com/y9y7efqv. In a few days, a second fascial anatomy atlas is published by our group in cooperation with the award-winning German photographer Anna Rowedder. The photographic images in this book are most impressive, as they are most carefully dissected and illuminated to enhance perceptual clarity. Preorders are possible: https://preview.tinyurl.com/ycpskqj5.

Fascia staining in plastinates on the pelvic anatomy

We are on to correlate CT/MRI/and thin slce plastination together with our gynecologists. Prof. Höckel, leader of the Leipzig School of Radical Pelvic Surgery, supports this project. Two recent publications aristed from this fruitfull cooperation: 2017 at Geburtshilfe Frauenheilkunde and 2018 at Annals of Anatomy (Anatomischer Anzeiger).

Fascia live dissection

Dissecting fascia at specimens combined with haptic exploration of living patients tries a next course. In consequence of the succesful of Fascia Summer School 2016 this course was early occupied, and also the next is under booking (in German).
