This unit introduces normal adult and paediatric anatomy as visualised in medical images. It covers the surface and gross anatomical relationships of the major skeletal and soft tissue structures of the head, neck, thorax, abdomen, pelvis and limbs. They include the normal imaging appearance of structures, and their relationships, as demonstrated in the para-coronal, para-sagittal and transverse planes on planar radiographic and cross sectional images. This unit is cotaught with Imaging Anatomy PG.

Learning outcomes

On successful completion of this unit, students will be able to:
1. Apply an understanding of normal adult and paediatric anatomy in medical images;
2. Apply anatomical surface landmarks in relation to the anatomical relationships of each region;
3. Recognise and synthesise understanding of the anatomical relationships of the major structures of each body region with reference to medical images; and
4. Recognise the variations of anatomy between adult and paediatric structures with reference to medical images.


Graduate attributes

1. UC graduates are professional - employ up-to-date and relevant knowledge and skills
2. UC graduates are global citizens - adopt an informed and balanced approach across professional and international boundaries

Students must apply academic integrity in their learning and research activities at UC. This includes submitting authentic and original work for assessments and properly acknowledging any sources used.

Academic integrity involves the ethical, honest and responsible use, creation and sharing of information. It is critical to the quality of higher education. Our academic integrity values are honesty, trust, fairness, respect, responsibility and courage.

UC students have to complete the Academic Integrity Module annually to learn about academic integrity and to understand the consequences of academic integrity breaches (or academic misconduct).

UC uses various strategies and systems, including detection software, to identify potential breaches of academic integrity. Suspected breaches may be investigated, and action can be taken when misconduct is found to have occurred.

Information is provided in the Academic Integrity Policy, Academic Integrity Procedure, and University of Canberra (Student Conduct) Rules 2023. For further advice, visit Study Skills.
