Registration Information

Seminar Description:

This seminar is designed to provide a detailed three-dimensional knowledge of the pelvis and perineum. It is primarily a hands-on dissection course with introductory lectures on the regions to be dissected. At the end of each day a panel discussion will relate clinical disorders to the anatomy and treatment.

Because this is a dissection course, the number of registrants is limited by the availability of specimens. The maximum number of registrants is 24.

Learning Outcomes:

At the completion of this course the therapist will be able to:

Identify the musculoskeletal, fascial, nervous, and vascular structures of the pelvis and perineum.

Visualize the three-dimensional relationship among structures and areas of the pelvis and perineum.

Relate clinical disorders to the anatomy of these regions.

Relate treatments to the anatomy of these regions.

Discuss possible mechanisms for producing the signs observed with disorders of the pelvis and perineum.

Discuss possible treatments of pelvic and perineal disorders relative to the anatomy.
