Veterinary anatomy is the study of normal body organs and structures and will be delivered by lectures and practicals requiring systematic dissection of the dog as a type animal. Anatomical examination of live animals utilising handling skills are run in conjunction with dissection to give students an appreciation of the relationships of deep structures and organs to surface features. This topographical anatomy lays a foundation in normal animals for the clinical examinations and procedures carried out later in the course. Dissection of preserved and especially fresh animal tissues will begin the development of tissue handling skills required for surgery. Anatomy subjects run concurrently with Physiology Subjects and compliment each other.
