Course Goal / Objective
The aim of this course is to provide a detailed examination of the reticular system and its organization. The aim is for students to distinguish the reticular system, explain the anatomical basis of the reticular system in clinical cases, and interpret the relevant literature.
Course Content
The course aims to differentiate the basic structure of the reticular system, the connections of the reticular system and the clinical implications of its degeneration.
Course Precondition
There are no prerequisites for the course.
Resources
1. Current articles and online resources 2. Dere Anatomi Atlası ve Ders Kitabı 3. Dere Atlaslı Nöroanatomi ve Fonksiyonel Nöroloji
Notes
Additional readings will be assigned during the course.
