Teaching methods
Lectures are supported by plastic material (skull, brain), video material (patients with major neurological pictures), radiological material (CT and brain MRI, three-dimensional reconstructions of malformation aspects), and pathological anatomy images. Use of clinical cases. Students have at their disposal a pantry with photographic material.
