It makes use of systematic, topographical or instrumental approaches for the acquisition of images at different levels of macro and microscopic resolution, for the research of functional activities in relation to specific developments in the biomedical sciences. AIMS AND CONTENT LEARNING OUTCOMES The module aims to put the student in a position to understand the organization and structure of the human body in its various components, in an overall vision that integrates organs and systems. It makes use of systematic, topographical or instrumental approaches for the acquisition of images at different levels of macro and microscopic resolution, for the research of functional activities in relation to specific developments in the biomedical sciences. The student at the end of the course will know: describe the organization of musculoskeletal stystem describe the contents related to the regions of the head, limbs, chest, abdomen, pelvis and perineum, and the microscopic anatomy of the organs of the human body, with links to descriptive and systematic anatomy (form, position, relationships), topographic (loco-regional) and clinical. At the end of the course students will have developed the ability to: recognise and analyse the organ/apparatus within the region in which it is located, analyse simple anatomy-oriented clinical cases; identify the anatomical bases that led to the pathology described in the examples of clinical cases mentioned during the course. The study of Anatomy will allow to build solid theoretical and methodological bases that will allow students in Medicine and Surgery to: have capacity and autonomy in the realization of organ/pathology and pathology/patient models; operate correctly in the clinical context. PREREQUISITES Cytology and hystology. TEACHING METHODS Any Student with documented Specific Learning Disorders (SLD), or with any special needs, shall reach out to the Lecturer(s) and to the dedicated SLD Representative in the Department before class begins, in order to liase and arrange the specific teaching methods and ensure proper achievement of the learning aims and outcomes. TEACHERS AND EXAM BOARD CARLO MARTINOLI Ricevimento: Done by appointment. Please contact Ms. Daniela Baroni (Segreteria Radiologia Universitaria, tel. +39 010 555 5248) or send me an email at: carlo.martinoli@unige.it FRANCO FAIS DANIELE SAVERINO Ricevimento: Students are receives by appointment (to make the request write to daniele.saverino@unige.it). SILVIA RAVERA Ricevimento: on request by emailing the lecturer (silvia.ravera@unige.it) KATIA CORTESE Ricevimento: Student reception is by appointment only, to be arranged via email at: cortesek@unige.it Meetings are intended for specific clarifications regarding the course content, exam procedures, or other related aspects. Location: Human Anatomy – Cellular Electron Microscopy Laboratory Via Antonio de Toni 14, 16132 Genoa – 2nd floor, red door on the right. VANESSA COSSU Ricevimento: The professor receives students by appointment (to make the request write to: vanessa.cossu@edu.unige.it). LESSONS Class schedule The timetable for this course is available here: Portale EasyAcademy EXAMS EXAM DESCRIPTION The assessment of learning will be carried out by means of steps examination: - Witten test on the topic of musculoskeletal anatomy - Written test on the topics of Diagnostic Imaging (which will be a necessary requirement for the continuation of the examination). · Recognition of preparations of structural anatomy under the microscope, which will be a necessary requirement for the continuation of the examination. To be able to access the oral exam the student must identify at least two of the three preparations anatomo-microscopic that will be proposed to him; oral examination: the questions will be prepared in order to verify the anatomical knowledge acquired by the student from a systematic and topographical point of view, also with the use of anatomical models ASSESSMENT METHODS The verification of learning takes place through the only final exam that aims to ascertain the actual acquisition by the student of the expected learning outcomes. The student to pass the exam, then report a grade of not less than 18/30, must demonstrate to: describe musculoskeletal structures. describe the contents related to the regions of the head, limbs, chest, abdomen, pelvis and perineum, and the microscopic anatomy of the organs of the human body, with links to descriptive and systematic anatomy (form, position, relationships), topographic (loco-regional) and clinical. recognise and analyse the organ/apparatus within the region in which it is located, analyse simple anatomy-oriented clinical cases; identify the anatomical bases that led to the pathology described in the examples of clinical cases mentioned during the course. The study of Anatomy will allow to build solid theoretical and methodological bases that will allow students in Medicine and Surgery to: have capacity and autonomy in the realization of organ/pathology and pathology/patient models; operate correctly in the clinical context. Both forms of examination will be carried out in the presence. If the pandemic situation persists, the lessons could be held on the online platform Teams.
