COURSE DESCRIPTION
This course provides a study of the basic physical and radiographic structures and functions of the
skull and facial bones, gastrointestinal, urinary, cardiovascular, and respiratory systems and
genetics.
VIII.
COURSE OBJECTIVES
Upon completion of this course the student will be able to:
1. Identify the physical structures of the various systems of focus utilizing skeletons,
anthropomorphic phantoms and diagrams.
2. Identify anatomical structures radiographically.
3. Define and describe the component structures, functions, and associated disorders of the
endocrine, cardiovascular, respiratory, immune, digestive, and urinary systems.
4. Name all 206 bones of the skeletal system and identify their parts.
