General Information

Overview

This unit examines the gross, topographical and relational anatomy of the human body and develops the pattern recognition skills to identify normal anatomical structures on medical images. Each macroscopic anatomical structure, or its constituent part, is studied in terms of spatial characteristics, relative to adjacent structures, body planes, external and internal landmarks relevant to sonographic practice. This knowledge is engaged to enhance the development of pattern recognition skills in relation to the cross-sectional, oblique, coronal and sagittal display of these anatomical structures on normal medical images, with a particular focus on the interpretation of sonographic images.

Feedback from SUTE data.

Feedback

Students requested that it could be made clearer by unit coordinator that much of the learning occurs in the tutorial/study group.

Recommendation

Although students are already informed via the unit profile, unit Moodle page, and weekly emails, further communications and posts to inform students that their deep understanding of unit content occurs in interactive online tutorials and study groups could be made.

Feedback from SUTE data.

Feedback

Students enjoy the twice-weekly live interactions with teachers and other students via online tutorials on a Tuesday and online Study groups on a Thursday.

Recommendation

Continue with online interactive tutorials and study groups, to allow students regular interactions with teachers and their peers.
