Syllabus
Course Objectives
The course has as main purpose the knowledge of micro- and macroscopic organization of the human body in order to make possible the understanding of the physiology and the disease pathogenesis.
In particular, the topics covered by the course will be: general anatomy; hints of cytology; histology; hints of general embryology; macroscopic and microscopic anatomy of organs of musculoskeletal system, circulatory, respiratory, digestive, urinary tract, female genital tract, male genital system, the endocrine, dell ' integumentary apparatus; anatomical organization of the central nervous system and the peripheral nervous system; apparatuses of their particular sensitivities; signs of topographic anatomy, radiological and clinical.
Course Prerequisites
Rudiments of general biology.
No specific knowledge are needed. For the course general knowledge of cell and human biology are enough.
Teaching Methods
Frontal lessons, laboratory on 3D map of the human body
Assessment Methods
Written test: multiple choice quiz
