Imaging Anatomy

Catalog description

This course is constructed to reinforce normal anatomy by imaging modalities of plain film, CT, and MRI images. Imaging anatomy will reinforce the student's knowledge of anatomy and introduce the field of radiology. Students would be motivated to broaden their understanding of anatomy by being exposed to the application of that knowledge. The curriculum would introduce radiologic concepts, while stressing the normal anatomy of organ systems by imaging modalities. Anatomical structures will be recognized by projectional and cross-sectional modalities. The student will be expected to demonstrate the anatomical characteristics of that structure, for example course, area of supply, relations, morphology, etc. Primarily for medical and graduate students who have a comprehensive knowledge of human anatomy. We would encourage having taken ANAT 411 , Gross Anatomy or Structure.
