About Head and Neck

GoConqr Original

What this unit covers

This unit sits in the strand Regional Anatomy: Head, Neck and Back, within Anatomy. The resources work through the region piece by piece. You will find the tongue, the larynx, the oral cavity, the skull, the scalp and face, the orbit, the temporomandibular joint and the neck triangles.

Where to start

For a first look, open the mind map ORAL CAVITY. It lays out the vestibule, the oral cavity proper, the lips and their parts, such as the philtrum and the oral commissure. The larynx map gives its position in the anterior neck and its main function of protecting the lower airway.

Then move to the tongue. The quiz Muscles of the Tongue asks you to pick out the extrinsic and intrinsic muscles. Development of the tongue (H&N) goes further, with questions on the origin of the tongue muscles and their nerve supply.

Using quizzes and maps together

  1. Read a mind map and note the branches you cannot explain.
  2. Take a quiz on the same topic and mark what you missed.
  3. Go back to the map for those gaps.
  4. Use a flashcard deck for quick repeat recall.

For the scalp and face, try scalp and face and face and scalp 1. They ask about the layers of the scalp, where infection spreads, the blood supply and nerve injuries. For lymphatic drainage, HEAD, NECK AND NEURO: Week 5 - Tongue & Vision has labelling tasks and a table to complete.

Images and labelling

The deck Anatomy X-ray pairs images with labels such as the frontal and maxillary air sinuses and the cervical vertebrae. The quiz on the skull, muscles of mastication and muscles of the neck is built around numbered labels, so it suits practice with diagrams.

Your next step

Choose one region, such as the neck or the oral cavity, and work through a map, a quiz and a deck in turn. You can also make your own versions as you go.

Frequently asked questions

Which resource should I open first?

A good first step is the ORAL CAVITY mind map, which sets out the lips, vestibule and oral cavity proper. After that, try the Muscles of the Tongue quiz. It checks whether you can name the extrinsic and intrinsic muscles, which shows quickly where to revise.

What do the mind maps cover?

The maps include the larynx, the oral cavity, the skull, cranial nerves, muscles of mastication, the extrinsic muscles of the tongue, the orbital cavity and the nasal cavity. Others cover cervical triangles, the masticator space and suprahyoid neck spaces, so you can pick the region you are studying.

Are the resources free to use?

Yes. Every resource listed here is free to open, study and take, with no account needed. They were made by GoConqr users, not by GoConqr itself. A free account also saves your quiz scores and lets you make your own quizzes, mind maps, flashcards and notes.

Who are these resources for?

They suit university students who want to practise recall across the head and neck, and teachers looking for ready-made quizzes, maps and decks to point students towards. Almost all of the material is at university level, with a small share aimed at professionals.

Is there anything on the scalp and face?

Yes. The quizzes scalp and face and face and scalp 1 ask about scalp layers, infection spread, arterial branches and nerve supply. There is also a flashcard deck on muscles of facial expression, so you can move from questions to quick recall.

What if I cannot find my topic?

Look at the neighbouring resources first, as topics often sit under broader titles such as Neck or Head and Neck anatomy. If something is still missing, you can build your own quiz, mind map or flashcards to fill the gap.
