ANATOMY OF VISCERA AND DISSECTION

PAM3AVD

Not currently offered

Credit points: 15

Subject outline

In this subject, the anatomical principles covered in PAM2LIN, PAM2TUL and PAM3HANwill be applied to the detailed study of the thoracic, abdominal and pelvic anatomy as well as introductory principles of impact biomechanics. Topic materials will be presented face-to-face and online through lectures, video clips and worksheets, but you are responsible for your own learning through supported practical activities including examination of appropriate cadaveric material. You will develop specialised cadaveric dissection skills through a group dissection research project. Emphasis is placed on the application of anatomical principles to reinforce how structure relates to function.
