Students:
- This lab will include 2 parts - half of the time will be spent rotating through prosection stations and the other half perfoming a pelvic hemisection in preparation for the next lab
- Those groups in lab 45 (group A) will start by completing the hemi-section - find your donor table and pull up the instructions on the final page of this guide.
- Those groups normally in lab 47 (group B) will start with prosection stations - divide into 3 EVEN groups (~13 students) and pick a station to start at.
- When the first round is finished we will switch so that Group A will break up and pick prosection stations, and Group B will move to their donors to complete the pelvic hemisection.
- Use the checklists provided to make sure you have identified all the relevant structures.
