 |
| Course contents : | The course begins with the study of the limbs. Osteology, arthrology, myology and esthesiology will be successively studied for the fore and rear limb. The second part of the course will concern the neck and trunk. After studying osteology, arthrology and myology, general and compared splanchnology will be studied. The main species studied will be domestic carnivores, horse, ruminants (ox, sheep and goat). The peculiarities of the pig, rabbit and poultry will also be studied. |
 |
| Course objective : | Anatomy is the science which study the organisation of living beings. It is the fondation of the teaching of medicine and consists of a necessary introduction to the knowledge of the sound organism and its functions. Veterinary anatomy is general and comparative: it concerns all animal domestic species and describes resemblances and caracteristical differences. A the end of the lessons, students must be able to cite the general organisation of all the studied systems, to describe and draw the morphology of anatomical structures. In practics, the student must be able to adapt the knowledge to the professional requirements, particularly in the field of clinical sciences; medical imaging, semiology, propedeutics and surgery as well as in foodstuffs inspection |
 |
| Workshops : | There are 98 hours of practical works (TP)and 10h of directed works (TD). These TP and TD are obligatory and complementary to theoric lessons. They are organised by groupes of 45 to 50 students, with 8 or 16h of TP by week. Questioning about pratical knowledge will be regularly organised during the year. The notes obtained for these interrogations are taken into account in the final evaluation at the time of the examination. A student with 2 or more non justified absence during the TPs may be forbidden to present his exam during the first session.
The following TPs are organised:
Partim limbs: 8h osteology, 8h arthrology, 16h myology (forelimb), 16h myology (rearlimb)
Partim neck and trunk: 8h osteology, 8h arthrology, 16h myology (neck and thorax, including splanchnology), 16h myology (abdomen and pelvic girdle including splanchnology). Compared splanchnology of the pig, rabbit and poultry, 2hTD and 2hTP. |
 |
| Organization : | 56 hours of theoric lessons are at the program. The typical horary includes 2 to 4 hours of anatomy lessons per week at the first and second quadrimester. Assistance to practical lessons is obligatory. |
