Clinical Human Gross Anatomy

Catalog description

Clinical Human Gross Anatomy involves the study of the structure and function of the human body. This is accompanied by an abundance of clinical correlations to prepare students for systemic study of the body, their board exams, clinical rotations, and cases/scenarios they will encounter as a physician. The Human Gross Anatomy course includes lectures, discussion sessions and laboratory sessions. Models, radiographs, computer software and special demonstrations are used to facilitate learning. The knowledge gained from these experiences lead the student to develop a fine appreciation for not only the structure of the human body, but also the interrelation of its parts. Throughout the course, emphasis is placed on structure-function relationships and the clinical applications of anatomical knowledge.
