About this Unit
This unit provides a thorough understanding of the topographic anatomy of the human head and neck areas. It undertakes this by utilising a regional approach (as against a systems approach), emphasising the interplay of the different body systems. Cadaver specimens are used to facilitate the learning of spatial relationships between bony and soft tissues.
