-
Radiology, surface marking, and living anatomy
Common X-rays, CT/MRI orientation, landmarks, pulses, nerve testing, joints, and surface projections.
-
Competency-wise clinical applications
Integrated short notes and viva answers mapped to MUHS/NMC competency themes.

MUHS's published pattern for the 2019 onward batches allocates 100 marks across practical and oral components, including soft parts, microanatomy, axial skeleton, embryology, clinical anatomy/genetics, appendicular skeleton, X-ray/radiology, and surface living anatomy. The practical format should be verified against your college's current circular because university and batch-wise updates can occur.
