Attendance of the practical lessons is mandatory. Successful completion of credit test and final exam. The credit test and the final exam are in written form. The exam result is awarded according to the classification scale in accordance with the study guidelines.

After completing the study subject Anatomy, students will gain basic knowledge about the shape, structure and function of the musculoskeletal system, organ systems, cardiovascular and lymphatic system, nervous system, sensory organs, skin and mammary gland of companion animals, laboratory animals and domesticated birds in terms of systematic, comparative and topographical anatomy. Students will practically apply the acquired knowledge in connection with clinical subjects.

Basic anatomical terminology, position and direction of the parts of the body. The locomotor system (osteology, myology and arthrology), organ systems (digestive system, urogenital system, respiratory system), cardiovascular and lymphatic system, nervous system, sensory organs, skin and mammary gland, laboratory animals and domesticated birds. Interspecies differences.
