Podcast Description
A series of human embryology and anatomy podcasts linked to the teaching at the Swansea University School of Medicine, but hopefully helpful to all medical students.
| Name | Description | Released | Price | ||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|

1 |
25: Clinical anatomy of the eye | We've had a bit of a break while we've been writing a book, but consultant opthalmologist Mr Mike Austin asked if he could record a podcast about the anatomy of the eye in preparation for his teaching week. We talk about the importance of the eye clinically, and relate the anatomy of the eye to loss of vision and other pathology. | 3/3/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

24: 10 things you should know about the lower limb, part 1 | Sam broke his foot so decided to talk about some important aspects of the anatomy of the lower limb. Sam and Rhi talk about the bones of the foot and ankle, the knee, the sciatic nerve, veins and compartments of the thigh and leg. This episode includes a number of annotated images of plastic models and Sam's leg. | 6/2/10 | Free | View In iTunes |

23: 10 things you should know about the pelvis, part 2 | Sam and Rhi finish talking about some key pelvic anatomy by talking about the ducting of the vas deferens into the urethra, what the os is, the relationships of organs within the female pelvis and their ligaments, and the sensory innervation from the external g*******a. | 2/12/10 | Free | View In iTunes |
