Outline of human anatomy - Wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Outline_of_human_anatomy From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia The following outline is provided as an overview of and topical guide to human anatomy: Human anatomy – scientific study of the morphology of the adult human. It is subdivided into gross anatomy and microscopic anatomy. Gross anatomy (also called topographical anatomy, regional anatomy, or anthropotomy) is the study of anatomical structures that can be seen by unaided vision. Microscopic anatomy is the study of minute anatomical structures assisted with microscopes, and includes histology (the study of the organization of tissues), and cytology (the study of cells). 1 Essence of human anatomy 2 Branches of human anatomy 3 Anatomy of the human body 3.1 General anatomy 3.2 Bones 3.3 Joints 3.4 Muscles 3.5 Alimentary system 3.6 Respiratory system 3.7 Thoracic cavity 3.8 Urinary system 3.9 Genital systems 3.10 Abdominopelvic cavity 3.11 Endocrine glands The Anatomy Lesson of Dr. Nicolaes Tulp, by Rembrandt; depicts an 3.12 Cardiovascular system anatomy demonstration using a cadaver. 3.13 Lymphoid system 3.14 Nervous system 3.15 Sense organs 3.16 The integument 4 History of human anatomy 5 Organizations 6 Anatomists 7 See also 8 External links Main article: Human anatomy Human body 1 of 43 1/7/2017 11:26 AM Outline of human anatomy - Wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Outline_of_human_anatomy Gross anatomy Microscopic anatomy Cytology Histology The following list of human anatomical structures is based on the Terminologia Anatomica, the international standard for anatomical nomenclature. While the order is standardized, the hierarchical relationships in the TA are somewhat vague, and thus are open to interpretation.
