Course Description
The aim of the course is to teach molecular and morphological changes occurring at the cell and tissue level in pathological processes, hemodynamic disorders and inflammation types. Student explains the formation mechanisms of pathological processes. Recognizes the molecular and morphological changes occurring at the cell and tissue level in pathological processes. Relates the molecular and morphological changes that occur in pathological processes with pathophysiological mechanisms (diseases). Identifies the appropriate diagnostic methods by associating the basic principles and concepts of the diagnostic approach with pathological processes. Defines the working principle of the pathology laboratory and the role of pathologists. Defines the concepts of basic cellular pathological processes, hemodynamic disorders and inflammation types. Gains knowledge of repair processes.
