Professor Feneis designed the anatomic picture dictionary as a reference book that provides illustrated short descriptions of anatomic terms in accordance with the valid international nomenclature. The brief and clearly written text segments were set opposite concise figures of equal educational value—a graphic task that Professor Spitzer managed to solve brilliantly.
Since its initial publication in 1967, the Feneis work has been published in seven editions and has been translated into numerous languages. The acceptance of the pocket book format by our readers is proof of its successful didactic concept. Hence, it is only logical that the eighth edition should remain dedicated to this effective concept.
The text and figures were revised and adapted to reflect the current state of knowledge. Our colleagues and students also contributed significantly with their numerous suggestions. We would like to thank all of you for your efforts, especially Dr. C. Walther, who with great commitment provided a continuous supply of expert suggestions.
Proposals to add color to the illustrations of the present edition were rejected after extensive debate, because the masterful pen-and-ink drawings by Professor Spitzer already capture the essential elements of the structures. Furthermore, his drawings are plastic and easy to remember. The extensive addition of color would increase neither the informative value of the book nor the aesthetic appeal of the figures.
Instead, we selectively added color to the text when it served to make the individual chapters and terms easier to find, also when quickly leafing through the book. The combined use of color and different typefaces makes it easier to maintain an overview of the different terms. Highlighting in color the alphabetic characters of the figures facilitates the identification of text and graphic elements that belong together.
We would like to thank Georg Thieme Verlag and its employees for their patience, understanding, and collaboration in the production of this edition.

The organization of the terms in accordance with the current Nomina Anatomica is exemplified by the typefaces shown on the right.
Terms not organized hierarchically are printed in normal red lettering.
The letters printed after a text segment refer to the figures on the opposite page. The numbers in the figures correspond to the key word mentioned behind the corresponding number listed in the text.
Higher-ranking terms frequently are not represented by a number in the figures.
Fully valid alternative expressions are listed in parentheses.
The following are listed in single square brackets:
—inconstant structures,
—terms that are unofficial but listed in the Nomina Anatomica,
—explanatory supplements.
Terms not mentioned in the Nomina Anatomica are printed in double square brackets.
Terms representing a supplement to the older editions are marked by lower case letters.
Circled numeric marks refer to a more extensive region.
