Anatomy (Cardiovascular system)
At the Medical University of Sofia, Anatomy (Cardiovascular system) is taught in Year 2 of Medicine, and its syllabus of 36 topics runs through four chapters. It opens with the heart, covering its development, chambers, wall, pericardium, blood supply and conducting system, then moves to the arteries, from the aorta and carotids to the vessels of the limbs and pelvis. Veins and fetal circulation follow, including caval and porto-caval anastomoses, and the course ends with the lymphoid system, from lymph nodes, tonsils, thymus and spleen to regional drainage. AceMed's notes cover every topic in about two hours of reading, with 118 labelled pictures, 8 tables, frequent mnemonics and 481 flashcards.
