Anatomy Bones and Muscles
Anatomy Bones and Muscles is taught in Year 2 of Medicine at the Medical University of Pleven. Its syllabus opens with the bones and joints of the trunk, the skull and the limb joints, then muscles and fasciae, before moving through the digestive, respiratory, urinary and genital systems, endocrine glands, heart, blood vessels and lymphatic system. Neuroanatomy follows, from the central nervous system to the spinal, cranial and autonomic nerves, then sense organs and skin. It closes with the topographic anatomy of the head and neck, trunk and limbs. AceMed has notes for all 236 topics, about 18 hours of reading built around 1,503 labelled pictures and 98 tables, plus 2,925 flashcards.
