Q

Regional anatomy

A
  • study anatomy region by region
    -ex head outermost skin & head (integramenty system) → skull (skeletal system )→ present micninjas made of connective-tissue system → protect the brain → brain ( nervous system) →carrying away nutrients from brain (cardiovascular systems)→gasious exchange ( respiratory system)
    -studying multiple systems together as they relate to a region

Q

Nervous system

A

-Blood vessels that are running through the structures of the brain → bring food to the brain cells → carrying a way the waste

Q

Surface anatomy

A
  • Focuses superficial anatomic markings and internal body structures as they relate to the skin covering them
    -ex annual physical physician feels lymph nodes to ensure they are not enlarged→physician studying organs through surface anatomy

A

Examines similarities and differences in the anatomy of different species
Ex cat-and human have same muscles

Q

Cytology

A

-Study of individual cells and their internal structure

17
Q

Histology

A

Study of tissues

18
Q

Pathologic anatomy

A

Examines aratomic changes caused by disease considers both gross and micro anatomy
Similar to comparative anatomy same species health vs non healthy

19
Q

Radiographic anatomy

A

Investigates the internal structures of the body not invasive!
Ex xray / anatomical imaging l synogruphy/CT/DSA/MRI/ pet scan

20
Q

What is xray good for

A

Bones teeth and dense structures like tumors

21
Q

What are the disadvantages of xray

A

High energy radiation
Does not image sett tissue well

22
Q

Sonography

A
  • Sater than X-ray
  • as the wand is moved across the body high frequency ultrasound that produce an image = sonogram,
23
Q

Computed temography Ct cat scan

A
  • low intensity xrays are emitted from one side of the machine pass through the body and collected by detectors on the opposite side
  • continuous thins slices of images = formed
  • the slices can be put together and reconstruct a 3d image of the body
24
Q

Why is the CT better than the xray

A

Because it takes many images in thin slices

25
Digital substraction angiography
' Modified 3d technique to look @ blood vessels espicaly to see a blockage
26
Why is it called subtraction?
B/c the image is done 2x before and after injecting an opaque medium into the blood vessels Then the before and after image will be substrate to see the blockage
27
How does DSA help drs
Helps accurately guide the catheter to the blockage
28
MRI
_Uses strong electro magnets → strong magnetic field that actually moves the proton in the body - soft tissues show up very clearly
29
Functional MRI
Used to map the regions of the brain that are functional during a specific activity
30
Positron emission tomography pet scan
_ Radioactively labled glucose is used → helps metabolically analyze tissue @any given moment -Used to see if certain types of cancers have metasizied throughout the body because cancer cells take up more glucose show as hot spots in the scan
31
Divisions of physiology
Cell physiology Respiratory physiology Neurophysiology cardiovascular reproductive
32
Cell physiology
Studying metabolic activities @ a cellular level
33
Respiratory physiology
Function of respiratory system
34
Neurophysiology
Function of the neurons the nerves
35
Cardiovascular
Function of the heart blood vessels
36
Reproductive
Function of the reproductive hormones t reproductive cycle
37
Pathophysiology
Relationship btw function of organ or organ system which is normal or diseased
38
How are form t function interrelated
Ex our lungs are made of microscopic aveoli = little sacs - alveoli have a large surface that matches their function = gas exchange _to facilitate the function the large structure= needed
39
