Study Notes
Subdivisions of Anatomy
- Embryology: Focuses on the first 8 weeks of development
- Developmental Biology: Covers all stages of development
- Cell Biology: Examines the structure and function of cells
- Histology: Studies the microscopic structure of tissues
- Surface Anatomy: Identifies external body markings using observation and palpation
- Gross Anatomy: Investigates the body structures without a microscope
- System Anatomy: Examines the structures of specific body systems
- Regional Anatomy: Details the structures of specific body regions
- Radiographic Anatomy: Studies the body structures using X-rays, CT scans, or MRIs
- Pathological Anatomy: Analyzes structural changes caused by diseases
