Learning outcomes
At the end of the tutorials of macro-and microscopic through the use of human bones, plastic models, plastinated organs and human cadavers, the student is able to describe the human body in its dimensional, topographic and functional relations
Course contents
Entire program can be found at Prof. Patrizia Santi website.
Locomotor Apparatus
General information on bones, joints and muscles. Description of
the different bone segments and the way by which they articulate
with each other. Origin, insertion, innervation and function of the
major skeletal muscles of head, neck, trunk and extremities.
Topography of the blood vessels in relation to the muscles of the
extremities.
circulatory System
Heart - topography and surface anatomy, pericardium, internal
configuration, vascularization, innervation.
Organization of blood vessels. Course of of the aorta and its
collateral branches. Course of the vena cava. Lymphatic system:
organization of the lymphatic vessels, lymphatic vessels and
thoracic duct main.
Hematopoietic and lymphoid organs: Microscopic anatomy of: thymus,
spleen, lymph nodes, palatine tonsil, pharyngeal tonsil.
RESPIRATORY
Upper and lower airways: topography, systematic anatomy, blood
supply, innervation.
Lungs: topographic anatomy and macroscopic bronchial tree, vicious
circle nutritive and functional, innervation. Serous
pleural. Mediastinal cavity. Microscopic anatomy: thachea,

Teaching methods
Macroscopic anatomy.
Students are divided into groups to carry out a number of
laboratories in which they can study several preparations that help
in the study of human anatomy
Under the guide of tutors (students seniors) are provided for some
exercises Surface anatomy aimed at identifying the main reference
points of the splanchnic organs on the bony structures of
reference, and the arterial pulses.
Microscopic anatomy.
Students are divided into groups to perform exercises that
facilitate the observation of the optical microscopic slide
.
Assessment methods
Final assessment consists of an oral examination in which the student, having plastic models, will have to demonstrate acquired knowledge of systematic and topographical anatomy of the various organs. There will be also a recognition of a optical microscopic slide.
Teaching tools
Personal computer, projector, CT and MRI images.
