解剖學是一門形態(tài)學，臨床醫(yī)生對它很感興趣。解剖研究在臨床問題中的實際應用，需要從眾多的國際著作中進行特別的適應和選擇。盡管人們傾向于認為解剖學不太可能取得有意義的進步，但不斷的修正是必要的。《外科與放射解剖學》，第一份國際臨床解剖學雜志就是本著這種精神創(chuàng)辦的。它的目標是為臨床醫(yī)生服務，不管他們的專業(yè)是什么——內科醫(yī)生、外科醫(yī)生、放射科醫(yī)生還是其他專家——作為他們提高解剖學知識不可或缺的輔助手段。每期包括:原始論文、綜述文章、醫(yī)學、外科和放射學技術解剖學基礎的文章、正常放射解剖學文章、臨床感興趣的解剖出版物的簡要綜述。特別注重高質量的插圖，這對于更好地理解解剖學問題是必不可少的。《外科與放射解剖學》是解剖學家為對解剖學有特殊興趣的臨床醫(yī)生所寫的雜志。

Anatomy is a morphological science which cannot fail to interest the clinician. The practical application of anatomical research to clinical problems necessitates special adaptation and selectivity in choosing from numerous international works. Although there is a tendency to believe that meaningful advances in anatomy are unlikely, constant revision is necessary. Surgical and Radiologic Anatomy, the first international journal of Clinical anatomy has been created in this spirit. Its goal is to serve clinicians, regardless of speciality-physicians, surgeons, radiologists or other specialists-as an indispensable aid with which they can improve their knowledge of anatomy. Each issue includes: Original papers, review articles, articles on the anatomical bases of medical, surgical and radiological techniques, articles of normal radiologic anatomy, brief reviews of anatomical publications of clinical interest. Particular attention is given to high quality illustrations, which are indispensable for a better understanding of anatomical problems. Surgical and Radiologic Anatomy is a journal written by anatomists for clinicians with a special interest in anatomy.
