Anatomy

About the Department

The subject of Anatomy introduces students to the study of structure and internal architecture of tissues and organs of the human body, and forms the basis for the study of medical sciences.

The Department has well designed two dissection halls and well equipped histology laboratory, in addition it has well furnished demonstration rooms and spacious research laboratory.

A large museum of the Department which exhibits wide range of dissected specimens, charts, bones, joints, models, X-rays and CT & MRI films form the main core of content.

The Department also has the Body Donation Society office. The people from local and nearby districts tender the application forms by pledging the whole body to be taken by the college after their death, for training the students and for research purposes.

Dr. Subhash K. Deshpande, working as Professor and Head of the Department. He is interested in developing the Department in Histology section, Museum and initiation to start Cadaveric laboratory and genetic laboratory.

For the undergraduate teaching and training region wise didactic lectures, demonstrations with dissection of cadavers are arranged. Periodical class tests and three internal assessment examinations, both in theory and practical, are conducted regularly. For the postgraduate teaching and training, periodical seminars, journal clubs and PG lectures are arranged. Cadavers are given to each of the postgraduate student for complete dissection of the body.
