Annotation

The theoretical aspect of the subject will encompass basic anatomy, physiology and biomechanics of the spine. Clinical examination, radiological studies, basic surgical indications and operative treatment of the spine will be included. The practical part will train students in clinical examination of the spine, to fuse clinics with radiological images and finally attempt to suggest the correct method of treatment and type of surgery.
