Introduction and Survey of the Human body Anatomy history – how we got here How we study the human body today Anatomical position and directions Up? Down?
2
A few questions before we begin Who were the first anatomists? When was radiography invented? How did it change medicine? Is malleus the same as malleolus? Where is an inguinal hernia? What is homeostasis?

How to study the human body Inspection Palpation Auscultation Percussion Exploratory surgery Medical imaging Dissection

1895 - Radiography What’s black? radiolucent allows passage of x-rays does not absorb x-rays What’s white? radio-opaque radiodense not transparent to x rays absorbs x-rays
