Although detailed anatomy syllabi have been developed for medical and other health professional students, none are available for training physical therapists. Therefore, the aim of this project was to produce a core musculoskeletal anatomy syllabus specific to physical therapy students, utilizing a modified Delphi approach. An international Delphi panel (\n                    <jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>\n                    \u00a0=\u200953) composed of anatomists and clinicians involved in physical therapy education considered a total of 2193 anatomical items arranged in four categories (musculoskeletal concepts; vertebral column; pectoral girdle and upper limb; pelvic girdle and lower limb). Using specific criteria, items were rated on the basis of whether they were considered essential knowledge for a competent physical therapy student, and were categorized as core, recommended, not recommended or not core. Of the 2193 items, 1700 (77.5%) were rated as core or recommended. For musculoskeletal concepts, 70% (233\/332) of items were categorized as core\/recommended. Approximately 80% of items in the other three categories were considered core\/recommended\u2014vertebral column (355\/440), pectoral girdle and upper limb (513\/657), and pelvic girdle and lower limb (599\/764). This project presents a detailed musculoskeletal anatomy syllabus which may be used within a physical therapy curriculum. A key difference compared to published musculoskeletal anatomy syllabi for medical students is that a greater number of items are considered core\/recommended (approximately 80% vs. 50%). These findings will now be considered and deliberated in accordance with the International Federation of Associations of Anatomists modified Delphi approach.\n                  <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1002\/ca.23953","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,9,30]],"date-time":"2022-09-30T04:20:15Z","timestamp":1664511615000},"page":"190-223","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":15,"title":["A core musculoskeletal anatomy syllabus for undergraduate physical therapy student education"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"36","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-7288-0209","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Stephanie J.","family":"Woodley","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Anatomy, School of Biomedical Sciences University of Otago  Dunedin New Zealand"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Rodney A.","family":"Green","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"La Trobe Rural Health School La Trobe University  Bendigo Australia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-5571-5754","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Alexandra L.","family":"Webb","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Medical School, College of Health and Medicine Australian National University  Canberra Australia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,10,12]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_6_2_1","unstructured":"American Physical Therapy Association.
