Course objectives

The goal of the theoretical preparation part is to provide detailed information about methods that utilize the latest knowledge in the field with regard to the contemporary level of routine use of new procedures and technologies. The basics of indication and interpretation of laboratory procedures with regard to clinical units and diagnoses. In the practical preparation part, the goal is to gain practical skills on a level that will allow the graduates to easily be included in clinical laboratory work teams.; A student will be able to do the following upon completing the course: determine the correctness of the indication and interpretation of laboratory tests; identify cases of interference and correctly respond to them; communicate with clinical workers; correctly respond to the finding of out of bounds test results; have an overview of used analytical principles; follow standard analytical operational procedures;
