This video tutorial teaches about the two different types of heart muscle cells, beginning with an introduction and the role of contractile heart muscle cells (cardiomyocytes). It then explains the pacing or conducting heart muscle cells, covering the SA node, AV node, the bundle of His along with left and right bundle branches, and the Purkinje fibers. The concept of the pacemaker hierarchy is discussed, followed by how cardiac muscle cells are linked together. The tutorial concludes with practice exercises, a concise “in-a-nutshell” summary, and acknowledgements.
This video tutorial discusses CT scans in the context of anatomy, starting with an introduction and a general overview of the abdomen in axial CT series.
It explains the abdominal wall, highlighting its structure and importance in providing support and protection.
The abdominal wall muscles are then described in detail, showing their arrangement and functional significance.
The cardiovascular system within the abdomen is explored, focusing on major vessels and their radiological appearance.
The peritoneum is explained as an important lining structure, along with its reflections and spaces seen in CT.
Finally, the tutorial covers the abdominal organs, demonstrating their normal CT anatomy and clinical relevance.
This video tutorial teaches the long sensory pathways, beginning with an introduction and the definition of sensation, followed by different somatic sensations such as vibration, proprioception, fine touch, pain, temperature, and crude touch. It explains sensory dissociation and the two major ascending pathways for somatic sensation (DCML and ALS), along with the three neurons in long sensory pathways. The anterior lateral system (ALS) and spinothalamic tract are described, including the sensory homunculus and the tract of Lissauer (dorsolateral tract), with ALS practice problems. The dorsal column medial lemniscus (DCML) is then covered in detail with the gracile fasciculus, cuneate fasciculus, gracile nucleus, and cuneate nucleus, followed by DCML practice problems. The tutorial concludes with a summary “In a Nutshell” and acknowledgements.
