Clinical Anatomy

Catalog description

Using a regional approach that integrates the principles of basic, radiologic, and cross-sectional anatomy and embryology, students will learn the structure and function of human anatomy. Throughout the course, heavy emphasis is placed on clinical correlations-that is, clinically-relevant anatomy as it applies to patients. Embryology is incorporated throughout the course and includes the study of congenital malformations. The laboratory experience consists of high-yield laboratory demonstrations where all facets of clinical anatomy (osteology, prosection, radiologic and cross-sectional anatomy) are explored.
