Regional Anatomy I - Thorax, Abdomen, Pelvis, Perineum
Objectives
The Regional or Topographical Anatomy is an additional area of Morphological Sciences complimentary to General Human Anatomy and Descriptive Anatomy General or Systemic. While these provide the students with the fundamental building blocks for knowledge of language and anatomical terminology, as well as descriptive aspects of the various organs and systems, Regional Anatomy addresses the structure of the human body in a topographical perspective. The human body is now divided into anatomical regions that are studied by defining its limits, its different plans, relations between different structures, feeling the different textures of tissues and organs and becoming aware of the possibility of change from the "normal" that every individual and every structure can present.
The teaching of Anatomy, as we see it, will be to promote a sound knowledge of Normal Anatomy, essential in preparing the student for future learning in other curricular units of the MSc in Medicine. Only an extensive and solid background in Normal Human Anatomy, which includes the regional knowledge of anatomy, can allow students to understand issues such as Anatomy of Development, Functional Anatomy, Imaging anatomy, Ultrasound Anatomy, Endoscopic Anatomy, Pathological Anatomy and Clinical Anatomy (from both the medical and surgical areas).
This optional Course Unit is also the response to a challenge posed by students
during the first semester of the first year: "looking for more"! The theoretical and practical knowledge of Normal Anatomy opened the door and will allow the study of Regional or Topographical Anatomy. The challenge of learning the Anatomy, essential to the formation of any physician, is also to accept this invitation to "learn to be more."

Teaching method
To achieve the learning objectives of the Course Unit of Regional Anatomy I, the students will have to attend the lectures and practical sessions that will be complementary and will resort to different teaching techniques.
1) Theoretical Component:
The course consists of theoretical lectures (three times expected), given the universe of course, with lessons of 90 minutes duration, in which the development of issues is preceded by the presentation of the summary of the lesson, and followed by a period for clarifying doubts in class.
The lecture should have as auxiliaries of exposure: an updated iconography illustrated with appropriate media resources, leaving to the discretion of the teacher whether or not to transfer the teaching material to students.
2) Practical Component:
The Practical Component is integrated in the first two teaching periods of the Theoretical Course, consisting essentially of Teaching and Learning of Regional
Anatomy through the Teaching and Practice of Human Dissection.

Subject matter
The syllabus of the Course Unit of Regional Anatomy I is: Thorax, Abdomen, Pelvis and Perineum are presented here in general terms. The detailed summaries, including the regional subdivisions, will be presented later.
The dates and hours of classes will be defined according to overall planning of the first year of the MSc in Nova Medical School and to logistic criteria, namely the number of students enrolled in the Curricular Unit, the availability of teachers and the management of rooms.
