Studying human anatomy by region, e.g. the shoulder, rather than in systems, e.g. the lymphatic system, etc. So basically taking in how all the systems interact with each other in a specific area of the body.
surface anatomy is the anatomy of the outside of an organ, such as the surface of the skin or surface of the heart, while regional anatomy takes the perspective of an entire area, such as in the thoracic region you would study the heart, lungs, aorta, and intercostal muscles just to name a few.
Surface anatomy (morphology) Gross anatomy (macroscopic) Systemic anatomy (systematic) Regional anatomy Developmental anatomy Embryology Pathological anatomy Histology Cytology Radiographic anatomy
Medical anatomy is very detailed. Paramedical anatomy is general.
The two major groups which the topics of anatomy lie are Gross anatomy & Microscopic anatomy
yes it is

Microscopic anatomy is not same as regional anatomy. In microscopic anatomy you study the structure as seen through microscope. This is also called as histology. In regional anatomy you study say head, neck and face or thorax or abdomen etc. That is a study related to that part.

Systemic anatomy is the study of anatomy (be it human, animal, or whatever other organism) by systems, e.g. the entire skeletal system is learned first, followed by the study of the entire muscular system, and so on. Regional anatomy is the study of anatomy by regions, e.g. the study of the entire arm, the chest cavity, the back, and so on, in which all systems present in that region are learned concurrently. There is some debate as to which approach is more conducive to learning and practical integration. However, whether or not one is more successful in the study of anatomy using the systemic method or the regional method seems to depend greatly on one's individual preferences and learning styles.
