Obiettivo del corso è fornire competenze sulla anatomia normale e l’embriologia del sistema nervoso. L'insegnamento includerà riferimenti all'anatomia topografica, radiologica e clinica.

Il corso permetterà di raggiungere una conoscenza dettagliata dell'anatomia del sistema nervoso periferico necessaria per un corretto esame fisico e la comprensione della patogenesi delle malattie.

Sistema nervoso periferico:

1. nervi spinali, radici spinali e plessi.

2. nervi cranici. 

3. sistema nervoso autonomo ed enterico.

Conoscenze acquisite durante il 1° anno nel contesto del corso "Fundamentals of human morphology".

Primo semestre

Gli argomenti presentati nel corso di Neuroanatomy II saranno verificati con una prova scritta alla fine del corso composta da questionari a risposta multipla e domande aperte; farà parte della valutazione generale della Neuroscience Track I. Sarà possibile un esame orale facoltativo se indicato dal comitato d'esame.

Durante l'emergenza COVID-19, potrebbero essere necessarie modifiche e in questo caso verranno implementate attività di esame a distanza.

Lun-Ven 9-17, solo su appuntamento.

The objectives of the course are to provide expertise in normal anatomy, embryology of the nervous system.

Teaching will include references to topographic, radiologic, and clinical anatomy.

The goal of the course is to provide a detailed knowledge of the anatomy of the peripheral nervous system required for a correct physical examination and understanding of the pathogenesis of the disease

Organization of the peripheral nervous system:

- cranial nerves

- spinal nerves

- autonomic nervous system

Knowledge acquired during the 1st year in the “Fundamentals of Human morphology” course.

Frontal lessons.
