Human Anatomy Sixth Edition Kenneth S. Saladin Chapter 01 The Study of Human Anatomy The Scope of Human Anatomy Anatomy – study of the structural basis of body function. Physiology – study of the functional relevance of a structure. Functional morphology (3F’s) “Form Follows Function” 1-2 ©2020 McGraw-Hill Education History of Human Anatomy Greek and Roman scientists laid Modern anatomy traces foundation for the it roots to Vesalius, a scientific study of the 16th century anatomist, human body - mainstay who combined medical of anatomical and illustration with cadaver medical understanding demonstrations and in Europe until the lectures—a legacy that Renaissance remains with us today Islamic scientists advanced in knowledge in the Medieval era while scientific research nearly nonexistent in Europe 1-3 ©2020 McGraw-Hill Education Gross Anatomy (Cadaver Anatomy) The word “anatomy” means to cut, and, for many centuries, the only way to visualize what lay beneath the skin was to perform cadaver dissections. Today, while cadaver dissection still plays an important role (we have a male and female cadaver in the lab), new techniques have offered exciting insights into human structure, and have expanded the avenues for the study of anatomy… all of which we will be using in lab this semester! 1-4 ©2020 McGraw-Hill Education Studying the Anatomical Sciences § Gross anatomy § Surface anatomy § Radiological anatomy § Systemic anatomy § Regional anatomy § Histology (microscopic anatomy) 1-5 ©2020 McGraw-Hill Education Methods of Anatomical Study Inspection Looking at surface appearance Palpation Feeling a structure Auscultation Listening to normal sounds Percussion Tapping and listening Dissection Cutting and separating of tissues 1-6 ©2020 McGraw-Hill Education Medical Imaging Replaces many exploratory surgeries. Radiology – branch of medicine concerned with imaging. Invasive – inserted into the body. Non-invasive – no penetration of the body. 1-7 ©2020 McGraw-Hill Education Techniques of Radiology Radiography X-ray or radiograph Contrast medium – for visualization of hollow organs Angiography – blood vessels Figure 1.2a 1-8 ©2020 McGraw-Hill Education ©Science Photo Library/Alamy Stock Photo Techniques of Radiology Computed Tomography (CT scan) Cross-section X-rays (look at it from the direction of feet to head) Equivalent radiation doses of 100-200 simple chest X-rays Figure 1.2c 1-9 ©2020 McGraw-Hill Education ©Puwadol Jaturawutthichai/Alamy Stock Photo Techniques of Radiology Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) Soft tissue visualization.

Nuclear medicine (use of radioisotopes). Used for finding active cell division/active sites in the body.

Situs solitus – normal arrangement. Situs inversus – reversed position of organs. Situs perversus – one organ atypically positioned. 1-13 ©2020 McGraw-Hill Education Levels of Human Structure Starting smallest to largest Atoms Molecules/ Macromolecules Organelles Cells – smallest “living” unit Tissues Organs Organ Systems Organism – single, complete individual. 1-14 ©2020 McGraw-Hill Education Human Body – Eleven (11) Organ Systems 1. Integumentary. 7. Lymphatic. 2. Skeletal. 8. Respiratory. 3. Muscular. 9. Digestive. 4. Nervous. 10.Urinary. 5. Endocrine. 11.Reproductive. 6. Circulatory.

Eponyms – terms coined from people’s names. Scientific terms (Use the term Myocarditis) Root – core meaning of term. Sometimes combining vowels. Prefix – word beginning, modifies root. Suffix – word ending, modifies root. Acronyms – words made of first letters of a series of words.
