It focuses on the description of the systems of the splanchnic cavities of the human body. The program also includes a general description of the locomotor system and the structures that make up the central nervous system. The presentation of these topics will follow mainly a systematic approach. AIMS AND CONTENT LEARNING OUTCOMES To acquire knowledge about essential morphological characteristics of the different systems,apparatuses and organs.Particular attention will be devoted to the morphology of functional anatomy of the locomotor apparatus , to the morphology of the foot (bones , joints, ligaments and muscles ) and to nerve structures and lower limb vascula AIMS AND LEARNING OUTCOMES The teaching of Splancnology aims to provide the student with adequate knowledge of the anatomical systems present in the splancnic cavities of the human body, starting from a macroscopic description up to the microscopic structure. Neuroanatomy and Osteo arthro muscular system will also be part of the program. In this way the student will have the basis to deepen specific topics in the field of human anatomy , and more generally to understand, along with the study of other disciplines, the normal physiology of the human organism and pathologies resulting from abnormalities in its functioning. In the case of the Program of Medical Radiology Technicians, the Anatomy course will foresee additional Innovative Learning lessons, which will promote the following transversal skills: - literacy-functional competence, advanced level; - personal competence, advanced level; - social competence, advanced level; - learning to learn, basic level. TEACHING METHODS The teaching activity will consist of 20 hours of lectures, during which, with the use of visual aids, all the topics that require knowledge at the time of the final examination will be illustrated and discussed with the students . In the sole case of the Program of Medical Radiology Technicians, to optimize training effectiveness, in addition to the 20 hours of frontal lessons, participatory teaching meetings are planned, which involve group work based on the use of 'case study'. This teaching methodology will allow students to work on literacy competence (at an advanced level), personal competence (at an advanced level), social competence (at an advanced level), and will promote their ability to learn to learn ( at a basic level). SYLLABUS/CONTENT Anatomical terminology Terms of position: anatomical position, planes and lines (clavicular, hemiclaveal, basisternal, subcostal, bisiliaca, xifopubica, spondiloidea), landmarks, reference terminology (cranial / caudal, etc), quadrant of the abdomen; terms of movement: definitions of the main simple movements, definition of compound movements. Division of the body into regions and their superficial delimitation. General organization of organs: Organization of the head and neck. Organization and topography of the organs contained in the thoracic cavity, mediastinal cavity and abdominal cavity. Peritoneum, supramesocolic and submesocolic spaces, retroperitoneal space, extra(sub)peritoneal space. Osteo arthro muscular system BONES Head: bones of the head (neurocranium and splanchnocranium). Trunk: vertebral column. Thorax: rib cage, ribs and sternum. Upper limb: general organization of the bones of the upper limb (particularly clavicle, scapula, humerus, radius, ulna). Lower limb: general organization of the bones of the lower limb (particularly hip, pelvis, femur, patella, tibia, fibula, foot).

TEACHERS AND EXAM BOARD FABIO GIUSEPPE GHIOTTO Ricevimento: By appointment, e-mail: fabio.ghiotto@unige.it LESSONS LESSONS START The lessons will start in the first semester in accordance with the didactic calendar Class schedule The timetable for this course is available here: Portale EasyAcademy EXAMS EXAM DESCRIPTION Oral examination ASSESSMENT METHODS The learning verification takes place through the final examination that aims to ascertain the actual acquisition by the student of the expected learning results. To pass the exam, the student has to acquire a grade of not less than 18/30. For this module a 'test in itinere' will be available for students of the first academic year, to be held in december, and the result will be taken into account during the official 'Anatomia-Istologia' exams of the first academic year. Students will need to demonstrate an adequate knowledge of the anatomical systems present in the splancnic cavities of the human body, from a macroscopic description up to the microscopic structure, as well as knowledge of Neuroanatomy and Osteo arthro muscular system. FURTHER INFORMATION The professor receives the students by previous appointment requested with an email.
