Introduction to Anatomy

Data

Official data in SubjectManager for the following academic year: 2024-2025

Topic

Anatomy describes the macroscopic structure of the human body. This is the first part of a two-semester subject. During the practices we give at first a general view about the structure of bones and joints, students will then learn the main muscle groups, vessels and nerves of the limbs and the trunk with the aid of human formaline-fixed cadavers. In the second part of the subject we describe the structure of the skull and the temporomandibular joint in details and at the end the vertebral column especially its cervical part.
