ANAT1002 – Anatomy of Limbs and Back
2020 – Session 2, Weekday attendance, North Ryde
Notice
As part of Phase 3 of our return to campus plan, most units will now run tutorials, seminars and other small group learning activities on campus for the second half-year, while keeping an online version available for those students unable to return or those who choose to continue their studies online.
To check the availability of face to face activities for your unit, please go to timetable viewer. To check detailed information on unit assessments visit your unit's iLearn space or consult your unit convenor.

Unit description
This unit builds on the basic anatomy taught in ANAT1001 (previously known as HLTH108) (Introduction to Anatomy). It focuses on the musculoskeletal anatomy of the upper and lower limbs and back. The unit utilises an integrated approach within which relevant gross and radiological anatomy as well as histology and embryology are investigated in detail. It is clinically oriented and focuses on surface and applied anatomy. The unit includes a significant practical component in which prosected cadavers, models, medical images, surface anatomy and clinical cases are studied. Students are expected to show an appreciation and respect for those who have bequeathed their bodies to science. |

Learning Outcomes
On successful completion of this unit, you will be able to:
- ULO1: Describe and identify the structural and functional features of the musculoskeletal components of the limbs and back and their anatomical relations.
- ULO2: Describe and identify the arterial supply, venous and lymphatic drainage of the musculoskeletal components of the limbs and back.
- ULO3: Demonstrate, where appropriate, on a living subject: a. musculoskeletal landmarks of the limbs and back b. the route of nerves and blood vessels of the limbs and back c. movements at joints d. muscle actions.
- ULO4: Identify bony landmarks of the limbs and back and identify major structures on selected radiographs, CT and MRI images.
- ULO5: Apply acquired knowledge of the anatomy of the limbs and back to investigate clinical case studies.
- ULO6: Communicate and demonstrate an appreciation and respect for those who have bequeathed their bodies to research.
