In 2019, the National Medical Council (NMC) made many changes to the medical curriculum; the inclusion of Early Clinical
Exposure (ECE) was one of the important changes. By including ECE, NMC aims solely at achieving both horizontal and vertical
integration in different phases of a medical curriculum. It also targets at developing the students’ interest in preclinical subjects
at the beginning of the curriculum, which will help strengthen the foundation of their career and produce knowledgeable Indian
medical graduates.
The book has been written according to the new changes made to the curriculum by the NMC. It will help fulfil the need of the
students and adapt themselves to the changes easily, as facing new changes is always a challenge for both students as well as
teachers. Keeping the NMC’s objective in mind, the author has made an effort to impart knowledge in a competency-based and
ECE format. This book focuses on explaining the anatomical basis of various disorders in a question–answer format.
When the ‘why’ is clear, the ‘how’ becomes easy to understand. And, when the ‘how’ becomes easy, the management
of a disease also becomes easy. This book will provide ‘guidelines’ to preclinical students to prepare for clinical-based
questions, and considering the vastness of the subject, it can be one of the best tools to revise clinical aspects of various
systems of the human anatomy.
