- Course objectives
- The aim of the course is amplification of the basic knowledge of anatomical structures, especially of the musculoskeletal, respiratory, cardiovascular, gastrointestinal, urogenital, and nervous systems, further to other theoretical and subsequently to clinical disciplines. The instruction will be focused not only on the basic anatomical description of the individual organs and systems but also on elucidation of the principal relations between their structure and functions which, in further studies, are necessary for the comprehension of physiological, pathophysiological, and pathological contexts required to master both theoretical and practical clinical knowledge. Within the framework of further preparation for clinical disciplines, explanation will be given of the basic topographical relations concerning anatomical structures of the individual systems. In the course of instruction, modern anatomical models are utilised for purposes of practical illustration in selected systems.
