Anatomy is the science concerned about the gross structure of the human body as well as its development (Embryology). The modern study method implicated in our faculty is 'Regional Anatomy' in which every part or 'region' of the human body is studied alone including all its systems (nervous, circulatory, muscular, etc.)

Anatomy is divided into the following parts :

  • Introduction (Biology)
  • Upper Limb
  • Lower Limb
  • Thorax
  • Abdomen
  • Pelvis and Perineum
  • Head and Neck
  • Neuroanatomy
  • General Embryology
  • Special (systemic) Embryology
  • All the above mentioned subjects are studied throughout the first two years, the order usually differs from year to year, but as a general rule, head & neck and neuroanatomy are studies in the 2nd year.

    Books of anatomy are usually divided into parts, each part covering a particular region. You are advised to buy only the part you are studying, and never buy all parts of a book, as you may change your mind afterwards and shift to a different author.
