These courses focus on mammalian developmental, microscopic, and gross anatomy. Lecture and laboratory material will concentrate on canine anatomy, with comparisons to feline, equine and ruminant species. Included in the dissection of each region are the musculoskeletal, vascular, nervous and lymphatic components, and clinically relevant surface anatomy. Embryology lectures cover the general patterns and principles of normal mammalian development and specific aspects of selected systems and species. Microanatomy lectures present basic cytology, tissue types, and specific organ systems.
