VET212: Veterinary Anatomy II

This unit will explore the anatomy of domestic mammals, emphasising the nervous, cardiorespiratory, urogenital and digestive systems of companion animals. Basic embryology will introduce each system and investigate the gross anatomical form and actions of each body system's components. Practical sessions involve dissections and studies of specimens held in the veterinary anatomy museum collection. Imaging techniques, auscultation and palpation of relevant body regions of the dog and horse will highlight morphologically-based clinical aspects of the practical sessions.
