A sample from this course

One topic, as StudyPath teaches it.

Anatomical terminology, planes and terms of relationship of the body

This topic introduces the standard language used in anatomy to describe body structures accurately and without ambiguity. For examination purposes, you must master anatomical position, the main body planes, and terms of relationship such as superior, inferior, medial, lateral, proximal, distal, superficial, and deep, because these terms are the basis of all later anatomical description.
