“You must learn the normal before you can recognize the abnormal:” Knowing how the body is structured and composed is a key prerequisite for understanding its functions and all pathologies. The complexity, terminology, and vast amount of information is overwhelming for many students.

This course systematically teaches you everything you need to know on the subject of anatomy, beginning with the basics all the way through advanced topics. Moving from the brain, head, back, and upper limbs through the thorax and abdomen to the pelvis and lower limbs, a team of experienced educators walks you through the structures in a series of engaging Video Lessons, pointing out key concepts on high-quality illustrations. Interactive 3D models let you explore the organs and structures yourself.

Downloadable study materials and a USMLE-style Qbank further support your learning, making it easy to understand and retain the topics. By the end of this course, you will have a comprehensive overview of the human body making you ready to ace your exams and dive into advanced clinical topics.

FAQs

What is anatomy, and why is it important for medical students?

Anatomy is the branch of science related to the study of the structure of the living body, particularly by its dissection and the separation of its parts. Medical students need to have a solid understanding of organ structures, including how they work (physiology).

What is the difference between anatomy and physiology?

Anatomy studies how the human body is built, all its parts and its structure. Physiology studies how the human body works and how all its parts interact.

What is gross anatomy vs microscopic anatomy?

There are two main branches of anatomy. Gross anatomy deals with the macroscopic structure of tissues and organs, while microscopic anatomy focuses on the smallest structures inside the body often examined with microscopes.

How to study for anatomy

The most effective way to succeed in your anatomy class is to combine different learning modalities:

First, deep-dive into the topics with video anatomy lectures hosted by competent educators followed by Lecturio’s comprehensive Concept Pages. Next, apply what you’ve learned in practical situations by answering clinical case questions in the Qbank.

Lastly, make sure you retain information long-term by regularly reviewing your  knowledge with Spaced-Repetition quizzes.
