Teaching methods
Gross anatomy
The teachers are always present in the classrooms where the
workshops are held, to help students, divided into groups, to use
the available material, leading them to a better comprehension of
the discipline.
Under the guidance of tutors (senior students), some anatomy
surface activities are organized, so that students can identify the
main landmarks of the splancnic organs starting from the bony
structures of reference.
Microscopic anatomy
The teachers, after an extensive description of the
microscopic features of individual organs, help students, divided
into small groups, during the observation of the microscopic
slides.
Assessment methods
The final verification consists of an oral exam in which the student must demonstrate the acquired knowledge of the systematic and topographical anatomy and neuroanatomy of the various organs. Students must also identify the anatomical structure of a microscopic slide.
