Systematic and Comparative Veterinary Anatomy
A.Y. 2024/2025
Learning objectives
The course aims to provide the student with theoretical and practical knowledge of the normal anatomy of animals of veterinary interest (dog, cat, cattle, horse, pig, and rabbit), taking into consideration the systems locomotor, digestive, cardio-circulatory, respiratory, urogenital and integumentary (systematic anatomy) and the main species differences (comparative anatomy).
Expected learning outcomes
At the end of the course, the student will have to demonstrate: 1) Knowledge and understanding: in-depth knowledge of the macroscopic and microscopic anatomy of the organs, the general organization of the body, visceral spaces, and cavities by considering: organogenesis, shape, position and relationships, vascularization and innervation and the main species differences; 2) Appling knowledge and understanding: to be able to apply the knowledge acquired during the course directly on histological, myological preparations, isolated bones and skeletons, viscera and corpses of animals. 3) Making judgments: to develop critical and judgmental skills by critically and proactively addressing the frontal and practical lessons and the study of the various topics both in the textbooks and on the material provided by the teacher. 4) Communication: to be able to expose the notions acquired with appropriate terminology, updated and consistent with the terminology used in the other disciplines both during lectures, when intervening during classroom discussions, and during practical lessons. 5) Life-long learning skills: to be able to deal effectively with the study of professional subjects to have a complete preparation to enter the world of work.

Prerequisites for admission
To take the exam, the student must have passed the compulsory preparatory examinations of the course of Biological Sciences preparatory to Veterinary Medicine, as well as have attended not less than 70% of the theoretical and practical hours.
Assessment methods and Criteria
The exam can be taken in two tests or in a single test.
Both tests involve a written part to test acquired knowledge and a practical part to test acquired skills EXAMINATION IN TWO TESTS
Part A (Systematic and Comparative Veterinary Anatomy Module 1), to be held in January (test time 1 hour), Part B (Systematic and Comparative Veterinary Anatomy Module 1) + Part C (Systematic and Comparative Veterinary Anatomy Module 2), to be held in June and July (test time 2 hours).
The part A mark remains valid only for the months of June and July. If the student does not also pass Parts B and C by that deadline, from September no part is held valid and the student must take the exam in its entirety. As of September, only single-test examinations are scheduled.
Systematic and Comparative Veterinary Anatomy Module 1 (Part A)
Examination topics: generalities on the locomotor system, description of axial and appendicular skeleton, muscles and the junctions with the most important species differences.
Mode of conducting the examination:
(A) Written test:
· 15 multiple-choice questions (4 answers) with a choice of one correct answer. Each correct answer is worth 2 points. In case of no answer the question is not considered; in case of wrong answer the final score is reduced by 0.5 points.
· Recognition of 1 card where images related to the locomotor system, both microscopically and macroscopically, are shown on mute maps. The proposed images correspond to those projected in class. The card is worth 1 point.
The test is considered passed if the student achieves a score of 18/30.
If the student answers all 15 questions and the picture card positively, his/her final grade will be 30L.
If the student achieves an overall score of less than 27/30, he/she must take a practical test. If the student exceeds the score of 27/30, he/she may decide not to take the practical test.
B) Practical test:
· Recognition of a skeletal or arthro-myological preparation and questions inherent to the topic, designed to assess the ability to apply knowledge and language property. The preparations have already been studied and explained during the exercises.
Depending on the overall outcome of the practical test, the final score (average of Part A and Part B) may vary +/- 2 points (e.g., from 25 may become 27 or 23).
If the student, during the practical test, answers the questions insufficiently, the exam may be considered failed, even if the written test was passed. At the next examination call, the written test must also be repeated.
Systematic and Comparative Veterinary Anatomy Module 1 (Part B)
Topics of examination: cardiovascular, respiratory and integumentary apparatus, considering shape, position, relationships, architecture and structure, the most significant ultrastructural characteristics, vascularization and innervation, and species differences.
Methods of examination:
(A) Written examination:
· 14 multiple choice questions (4 answers) with the option of choosing only one correct answer. Each correct answer is valued as 2.1 points. In case of no answer the question is not considered; in case of wrong answer the final score is reduced by 0.5 points.
· Recognition of 1 card where images of organs and/or apparatuses, both microscopically and macroscopically, are shown on mute maps. The proposed images correspond to those projected in class. The card is valued at 1.6 points.
The part is considered passed if the student achieves a score of 18/30.
If the student answers positively all 14 questions and the picture card, his final mark is 30L.
Systematic and Comparative Veterinary Anatomy Module 2 (Part C)

B) Practical test:
· Recognition of a microscopic preparation and questions related to the topic, designed to assess the ability to apply knowledge and language property. The preparations have already been studied and explained during the exercises.
The test is considered passed if the student achieves a score of 18/30.
If the student answers all 29 questions and 2 cards positively, his/her final grade will be 30L.
If the student achieves an overall score of less than 27/30, he/she must take a practice test. If the student achieves more than 27/30, he/she may decide not to take the practical test.

Teaching methods
The course is divided into two semesters and consists of theoretical and practical lessons in macroscopic and microscopic anatomy. Lectures are held in the classroom with the help of PowerPoint presentations. Students are invited to actively participate in the lesson, based on the knowledge acquired in the preparatory subjects. The slides are available on the teacher's Ariel website.
The practical lessons in macroscopic anatomy are held in the "osteoteca" and in the dissection room. The practical lessons in microscopic anatomy take place in the didactic microscopy laboratories and are merged with those of Module 2. Each student works independently, individually, and/or in groups (maximum 6 students per group), supervised by tutors, with the help of the reference text books.
During the practical lessons, questions will be asked in order to verify the properties of language and the ability to practically apply the acquired knowledge
