virtual field trip of autopsy of digestive system for anatomy and physiology class

This learning resource focuses on the examination of the human digestive system through virtual autopsy methodologies. It aims for students to identify major digestive organs and analyze pathological findings to understand physiological functions and disease processes. The resource includes various specimen scans where students must identify organs and record detailed anatomical observations. Safety protocols are highlighted to ensure proper methodology using CT and MRI imaging. Additionally, case studies are introduced where students apply the Claim-Evidence-Reasoning (CER) framework to analyze pathological findings, connecting them to physiological dysfunctions. Topics include gastric ulcers, fatty liver, pancreatitis, intestinal blockage, biliary obstruction, and chronic gastritis.
