Compulsory
1st Cycle Studies
Recommended Prerequisites
Students of Anatomy III unit shoud have previous knowledge of trunk and limbs innervation, in order to fully understand the unit learning program.
Teaching Methods
Lectures, seminars, theoretical-practical lessons and practical classes.
Learning Outcomes
The main purpose of Anatomy III unit teaching is the one of providing the skills of a full comprehension of the head and nervous system morphology and its international nomenclature (classical latin). By the end of the teaching program, the student should be able to identify, situate and fully understand the function of each structure.
Anatomy III unit emphasises the ultimate connection between the learning process and medical practice. Surgical techniques and imagiological data are intimately associated to good anatomical skills.
