Learning outcomes
The aim of the course is to continue the teaching and practical application of knowledge of systematic anatomy and the basics of topographical anatomy. The main contents of the subject are respiratory and urogenital systems, central nervous system, cranial nerves, autonomic nervous system, sensory systems, basics of head, neck and trunk topography.
Theoretical and practical knowledge of the structure of the human body, including topographical anatomy, necessary for the study of subsequent theoretical, preclinical and clinical fields.
Prerequisites
Basic knowledge of biology corresponding to the grammar school level. Theoretical and practical knowledge of the course Normal Anatomy 1 - locomotory system, angiology, peripheral nerves and gastroenterology. Abilities to work with professional text, interpretation of what is being studied, understanding of logical relationships between organ systems.
NAN/VAA13 and NAN/VAA14 and NAN/VAB14
