Module Aims
Provide students with the terminology necessary to understand the study of human anatomy.
Students develop an understanding of early embryology and developmental differences.
Students develop a detailed anatomical knowledge of the organ systems of the human body.
Develop a critical understanding of how the various organ systems inter-relate.
Explore the clinical aspects of each organ system and introduce concepts of clinical reasoning.
Develop a basic functional understanding of muscle testing, reflexes, dermatomes, and myotomes.
Content Summary
This module is designed to provide the student with an in-depth understanding of clinical anatomy. Students will explore the relations between anatomical structures and systems and their clinical importance.
Students will acquire the needed vocabulary and terminology to allow further study, in-depth of human health. Practical sessions will be devoted to hands-on examination of the anatomical structures.
In addition, student’s will develop clinical examination skills practical in muscle testing, deep tendon reflexes, dermatomes, myotomes and develop an appreciation of their clinical significance.
