Embryology

A PDF Booklet that covers the underlying anatomy, embryology and basic overviews related to groin swellings, particularly inguinal and femoral hernias.  

Summary of the embryology of the heart  

A revision powerpoint that covers the various embrylogical processes that take place in the developing embryo, and the consequences when they go wrong  

A website created especially for healthcare students to encourage learning of embryology, malformation and its clinical implications. The package aims to: reinforce and build upon current healthcare curriculum content for embryological teaching of head development, to complement and enhance current teaching/learning/revision for relevant examination(s), to include interactive elements such as self-tests in order to improve learning and retention of knowledge, and finally, to illustrate aspects of malformation for diagnostic/clinical teaching purposes  

A presentation on the visual system, explains the basic concepts of Anatomy, Physiology, Embryology, Pathology and a little information on examination. It's a great presentation for teaching purposes.

The Pharyngeal apparatus refers to the development and function of the clefts, arches and pouches which contribute to form the major components of the head and neck. Understanding the derivatives of the clefts, arches & pouches is initially time-consuming, however it lays a strong foundation to understand the clinical relevance thereafter. Hopefully this visual mnemonic will allow you to memorise all the derivatives of the pharyngeal apparatus with ease.  

The images may not display properly. In that case, just right click and open the pages as images in a new tab, then the whole thing should display fine!
