Biomedical Basis of Physiotherapy: Surface and X-Ray Anatomy 1855-F1-APIR-SJ
Palpation and X-ray anatomy are conducted in the form of practical exercises. During classes, students, based on their knowledge of human anatomical structure, in particular the musculoskeletal system, learn to palpate selected anatomical elements on a living person and their connections with neighboring structures, including bony elements that are attachment sites for muscles and ligaments, superficial muscles and tendons. and selected neurovascular bundles. In addition, course participants identify anatomical structures identified by palpation in radiological examinations. The knowledge and skills acquired during palpation and X-ray anatomy classes are necessary to learn selected special methods used in physiotherapy.

Assessment criteria
Students receive credit for the exercises on the basis of: 1. Independent and systematic preparation for the exercises in written form (flashcards).
2. Independent preparation of 3 practical tasks: drawings on the partner's body of selected anatomical structures of the lower limb, upper limb, head and torso.
Completed tasks should be presented in the form of printed photos.
3. Extended observation - it is possible to randomly check students' knowledge and skills in preparation for current classes (ZAL - knows at least 50% of the content, NZAL - knows less than 50% of the content).
A positive grade in a course can only be obtained if a positive grade is obtained for each of the established learning outcomes.
For correctly completed tasks (<50%), the student receives a credit for the exercises - ZAL.
For the lack of systematically performed tasks or preparing them incorrectly (>50%), the student does not receive credit for the exercises - NZAL and is not allowed to pass the course and receives an unsatisfactory grade on the first try.
Male and female students receive course credit based on:
A colloquium consisting of a theoretical part (knowledge of the location of selected anatomical structures) and a practical part - testing the ability to recognize and evaluate anatomical structures on a living person (minimum 3 questions). Based on the percentage of test results obtained, students receive course credit in the form of grades.
5.0 –90%-100%
4.5–80%-89%4.0–70%-79%3.5–60%-69%3.0–50%-59%2.0 less than 50%.
The student is entitled to two make-up dates.
During the assessment, it is prohibited to use any learning aids or electronic devices enabling communication with other people at a distance (e.g. mobile phone). Student's behavior justifying the possession of the aids or devices referred to above, or the identification of such devices, will automatically result in obtaining a failing grade in the test. The occurrence of the circumstances referred to above may result in the case being referred to the Student Disciplinary Committee.
The student is entitled to 3 absences, including 1 unexcused absence. Absence of more than 30% of classes results in failure to pass the final exam and a grade of failure in the course.
