This unit of study aims to provide students with a comprehensive understanding of the clinical and functional anatomy of the viscera in the human body. The focus is on the organ systems in the thorax, abdomen, and pelvis (respiratory, cardiovascular, gastrointestinal, urinary, reproductive, and autonomic nervous systems) and their functional integration with each other. Through the course practicals and workshops, students will acquire a 3-dimensional understanding of the human body and be able to apply this to cross-sectional, imaging, and clinical anatomy. As an advanced student you will also have the opportunity to engage with your colleagues through teaching, generating new ideas and informally presenting to the cohort. Students will study prosected wet cadaveric specimens, models, bones, and medical images. Relevant clinical and functional anatomy is discussed in lecture and practical sessions and are the focus of special workshop sessions designed to allow students to apply the course content via clinical scenarios. Other workshops are designed to analyze topographical, imaging, and cross-sectional anatomy of the respective regions through the study of MRI, CT, ultrasound, and X-ray medical images. The weekly format is a one hour lecture, two hour wet lab practical and a one hour workshop. This Unit of Study serves as a suitable preparation for Graduate Programs in Medicine, Dentistry, Nursing, Physical therapies, Forensic sciences, and other applied para-clinical and clinical fields. Successful completion of this Unit will provide students with a substantial understanding of Human Anatomy to support Post-Graduate careers in the fields of Biomedical Research, Innovation and Development.
