Functional Histology (MK_003)
About Study Course
Objective
Course Objective is to develop general and specific understanding of basic human development, to gather knowledge of achievements in modern experimental embryology and their practical use in daily work of a doctor, and of the elements and significance of comparative embryology.
Prerequisites
cell biology, cytology, biochemistry, normal physiology, anatomy and general histology
Learning outcomes
Students will be able to describe the plasticity of the hemopoiesis; define and analyse limit of the compensatory / adaptive structural changes and interactions, especially in so called „weak regions” of the above mentioned systems.
Students will be able to detect real compensatory, adaptive structural changes in microscopic slides of the gastrointestinal and reproductive organ systems, and recognise hemopoietic cells among the mature blood cells. Students will be able to document histological slides and to obtain, assess, classify and compare information from the latest specialist literature and make presentation combining information from slides and literature.
Students will be able to recognize tissue and organ morphology and structure in clinical specimens. They will be able to distinguish between healthy and pathological tissues. The students will be able to assess the quality of the specimen and the way they can be used for clinic.
