Provides an introduction to the functional anatomy of the human body with emphasis on the musculoskeletal system, peripheral vasculature and major nerve trunks. This course contributes to the broad biomedical science foundation required for health graduates. In addition, it provides a firm basis for later courses in organ-based anatomy.
| Objectives | At the completion of this course students will have an understanding of the functional anatomy of the human musculoskeletal system including major nerve and vascular trunks: 1. Anatomical terminology and the skeleton 2. Upper limb musculature, joint structure, vasculature and innervation 3. Lower limb, musculature, joint structure, vasculature and innervation 4. Axial musculature |
