Lab 28: Nasal Cavities, Oral Cavity, and Pharynx
Download this lab as a PDF Goals Bisect the head of your donor in the sagittal plane to expose the nasal cavities, oral cavity, and pharynx. Identify the parts of the nasal septum. Identify the turbinates and meatuses on the lateral nasal wall; remove the middle turbinate and identify the structures within the middle meatus. […]
Lab 27: Dissection: Infratemporal Fossa and Floor of Mouth; Bony Anatomy of Pterygopalatine Fossa
Download this lab as a PDF Goals Identify the temporal fossa and temporalis muscle. On a skull, identify the borders of the infratemporal fossa (ITF) and the foramina that connect it to other regions in the head. Clean the masseter muscle on one side of the face and remove it from the mandible. Use an […]
Lab 25: Neck: Anterior Triangle of Neck
Download this lab as a PDF Goals Review the bony anatomy of the cervical vertebrae and the hyoid bone. Clean the muscles and landmarks that define the triangles of the neck. Dissect the contents of the anterior triangle focusing on these subtriangles: carotid, muscular, and submental. Study prosected specimens. Osteology of the Neck Cervical Vertebrae […]
Lab 26: Dissection: Posterior Triangle of Neck, Deep Neck, and Root of Neck
Download this lab as a PDF Goals Clean and identify the contents of the posterior triangle of the neck. Perform a deep dissection to examine the sympathetic trunk and prevertebral muscles. Review the bony anatomy of the superior thoracic aperture and identify its contents. Clean and identify the structures in the root of the neck. […]
Lab 24: Dissection: Orbit and Ear
Download this lab as a PDF Goals Identify the bony walls and foramina of the orbit. Open the orbit via a superior approach on both sides and dissect its contents. Find the lacrimal gland in the cadaver and study the lacrimal apparatus on a model. Dissect the orbit from an anterior approach on both sides […]
Lab 22: Scalp, Cranial Cavity, and Meninges
Download this lab as a PDF Goals Identify the layers of the SCALP. Examine the dura mater and the dural septae. Remove the brain and study: meningeal coverings, gross features, and arterial supply (circle of Willis). Examine the internal aspect of the base of the skull and the cranial fossae. Identify cranial nerves and blood […]
Lab 21, Station 5: Lungs, pleura, trachea, and bronchi
Lab 21 navigation External Anatomy of the Lungs Apex and base Lobes Left lung = superior (upper) and inferior (lower) Right lung = superior (upper), middle, and inferior (lower) Surfaces = costal, mediastinal, and diaphragmatic Anterior and inferior borders In left lung: Cardiac notch and lingula Oblique fissure in both lungs; horizontal fissure in right lung […]
Lab 21, Station 4: The larynx
Lab 21 navigation The larynx is the “voice box”—it is the organ of phonation (sound production). It also serves as a valve to regulate airflow to and from the lungs and as a sphincter to prevent foods and liquids from entering the airway. Skeleton of the Larynx Figure 20. Skeleton of the larynx. The “skeleton” […]
Lab 21, Station 3: The pharynx
Lab 21 navigation The pharynx (“throat”) is the upper end of the alimentary canal. It is shared by the digestive and respiratory systems. See Figure 14 and 15. You will study the pharynx from two perspectives: in a mid-sagittal view on a cross-section and in a posterior view on a prosection. Figure 14. The pharynx. […]
