Objectives

Aim of the course is to provide students with essential knowledges of the main anatomical structures in the different regions of the body on images acquired by different diagnostic imaging techniques and the application of this anatomical knowledge to the principal clinical contexts.
The skills that students must achieve is therefore the ability to identify the different anatomical structures on Radiographic and Angiographic images as well as on section planes acquired by modern techniques of computed tomography (US, CT, MRI) in order to become familiar with human anatomical images and to be able in relating anatomical features to the principal eveniences in clinical practice.
