DPT 6160 Human Anatomy I
Lecture: 3 Lab: 1 Practica: 0 Total Credits: 4
This course is the first of a two-course series that provides the physical therapy student with foundational knowledge of human gross anatomy and neuroanatomy. Instruction includes focused clinical application of human embryology, histology, and functional anatomy to consider patient problems relevant to the physical therapist. Key emphasis is on a detailed study of the musculoskeletal and peripheral nervous system of the spine, thorax, abdomen, pelvis and lower limb to include associated osseous, muscular, nervous and vascular structures. Neuroanatomy content explores the gross structure and function of the nervous system in general and the spinal cord and peripheral nervous system more specifically. This course consists of lecture related to the static and dynamic application of applied anatomy along with heavy use of three-dimensional anatomy software, medical imaging, living/surface anatomy, and synthetic human anatomical models in lab sessions for hands on application and learning.
Prerequisite(s): Admission to Doctor of Physical Therapy Program
