Hope, this book entitled “Veterinary Anatomy- the Regional Gross Anatomy of Domestic Animals” shall fulfill these urgent needs and will reach to the expectations of the students and teachers. However there is a need to provide appropriate study and teaching material in the new format.
The teaching fraternity of veterinary anatomy in India have widely appreciated and accepted this change in the veterinary anatomy curriculum. Probably with these views the Veterinary Council of India has recently revised the course curriculum of anatomy and introduced the regional approach of teaching veterinary anatomy. This will make easy to understand the anatomical features of all relevant parts of different systems together in the given location (region).
However, it was long felt necessary to switch over to regional pattern for study of anatomy. Each of the various systems viz-Skeletal, Muscular, Blood vascular (circulatory), Nervous, Endocrine etc were taught separately in greater details. Since the beginning of veterinary education in India, Veterinary Gross Anatomy was taught in the form of Systemic Anatomy. Part-I comprises the first three parts viz-General Systemic Anatomy, Anatomy of Head and Neck and the Anatomy of Thorax while the Part-II comprises the next three parts viz- the Anatomy of Abdomen and Pelvis, the Anatomy of Fore limb and the Anatomy of Hind Limb. Because of these distinctive features, the book has become a little voluminous and therefore, had to be split into two volumes. This will make it easy to understand the applications of the anatomical features that form the basis of surgical, diagnostic, medical and obstetrical techniques in the solution of clinical disorders which is the main purpose of regional pattern of learning the anatomy. In addition to this, a separate section on Applied Anatomy has been introduced at the end of each regional part. Bovine animal, the ox, has been considered as a model species for detail description of the anatomical features, while the major differences or remarkable features in other species like horse, dog, sheep and goat, pig and fowl have been described under a separate heading as Comparative Anatomy at the end of each section. head, neck, thorax, abdomen, pelvis and the fore and hind limb.
bones, joints, muscles, viscera, blood vessels, lymphatics nerves, etc located in the respective region of the animal body viz. Each of these parts contains the description of all anatomical structures viz. The first part comprises the basics of veterinary anatomy described in the conventional form of systemic anatomy while the remaining five parts comprise region wise description of gross anatomy. The text of this book with regional approach of teaching and studying veterinary gross anatomy has been divided in six parts. About the Book Content/Buy Chapters Translate Feedback
