fields of study / plans the course is directly associated with
Course objectives
The main goals of the course are: • expansion of anatomical knowledge of head and neck structures by clinical correlation • deeper understanding of the topographical relationships of individual head and neck systems • understanding the basic neurophysiological and anatomical consequences of nerve pathways
Learning outcomes
After completing the course, the student will be able to: -orient yourself in detail in the clinical anatomy of the head and neck - understand the basic neurophysiological aspects of neural pathways - describe the involvement of individual neurons in a specific nerve pathway
