Clinical Human Anatomy

Catalog description

Clinical Human Anatomy is a lecture-discussion course and laboratory with prosected cadavers. Didactic lectures provide the student with the knowledge necessary for the sequential discovery of the structural and functional relationships of the human body. The course integrates basic concepts of embryology and neuroanatomy into the major content focus of histology and gross anatomy through clinical application in both lectures and laboratory settings. The knowledge gained from this experience leads the student to develop a fine appreciation for not only the structure of the human body but also how each part is related to every other part. Clinical correlations and diagnostic imaging are included within the course’s lecture and laboratory sessions to familiarize students with situations they may encounter in clinical medicine. Emphasis is placed throughout, on structure-function relationships and the clinical applications of such knowledge.
