The journal embraces anatomy in all its aspects - gross, histologic, developmental, and neurologic - as applied to medical practice. Furthermore, the journal assists physicians in keeping abreast of new methodologies for patient management and informs educators of new developments in clinical anatomy and teaching techniques. Clinical Anatomy publishes original and review articles of scientific, clinical, and educational interest. Papers covering the application of anatomic principles to the solution of clinical problems and/or the application of clinical observations to expand anatomic knowledge are welcomed. The journal accepts articles in the following categories:

The Keith and Marion Moore "Blue Box" Award The Keith and Marion Moore "Blue Box" Award has been created by Dr. Keith L. Moore, a founding member of the AACA and well-known anatomy textbook author, as an award to recognize the best student-authored paper published in Clinical Anatomy annually. It is open to graduate and medical students. The "Blue Box" is used in his textbooks as an indicator of clinical significance, and is quite familiar to students. The award is for the best student paper published in Clinical Anatomy during a given calendar year/journal volume. The awardee must be the first author on the paper. The award will consist of a plaque and a check for $500. This award competition is open to graduate and medical students worldwide, even those who have received their PhD or MD's in the year that the paper is published. The student would be nominated by the student's supervisor or anatomy professor. A Blue Box Award Committee of 3-5 AACA members will be appointed by the AACA President, with the Editor-in-Chief of Clinical Anatomy being a member of the committee. The Award may not be presented each year, if a qualified student paper has not been published. The award would be announced and presented at the Annual AACA Meeting Banquet.
