Objectives

At the end of the course the student must have acquired a three-dimensional representation of human body, surface characteristics, and internal organization. The approach will be mainly of a systematic type, based on the study of the single apparatus and therefore of the organs and viscera that constitute the systems and apparatus. At the same time, students will be provided with the basic notions for a topographical study of Human Anatomy, taking into account the large regions of the body in order to better evaluate the relationships between organs, viscera and connective devices in each territory. Organs and viscera will be considered in their macroscopic and microscopic structural features as they appear after dissection of the body, after radiological examination and after observation of sections processed for optical microscopy.
Illustrate the principles of functional anatomy of the central nervous system based on magnetic resonance images (MRI) and computerized axial tomography (CT)

Contents

The integrated course in HUMAN, SYSTEMATIC AND TOPOGRAPHIC ANATOMY deals with the study of the systems that make up the human body, with attention to the localization and relationships that the organs that are part of it have among themselves and with the surrounding structures, mentioning their functions. Morphofunctional anatomy of the CNS
