Course objectives

The main aims of the course include:
understanding the basic pathologic processes (regressive and progressive changes, inflammation, pathologic immune reactions, oncogenesis, genetic background of disease)
knowledge of basic classifications of non-neoplastic and neoplastic disorders
application of this knowledge in individual organ systems with focus on morphological substrate od individual disorders from both microscopis and macroscopic point of view
introduction of the role of pathology in clinical practice, of methods of tissue processing, methods of molecular pathology; demonstration of pathological anatomical autopsies and thier evaluation.

Learning outcomes

Completing the course, the student will be able:
to understand basic pathologic processes (regressive and progressive changes, inflammation, pathologic immune reactions, oncogenesis, genetic background of disease)
to know basic classifications of both nonneoplastic and neoplastic disorders
to apply the knowledge of general pathology to individual organ systems: to know basic etiopathogenesis, both macroscopic and microscopic correlates, basic clinical symptoms and complications of diseases in individual organ systems
to know the role of pathology in clinical practive and main methods of examination in pathology.

Syllabus

• Introduction: characteristics of pathology, pathology in practice. Methods in pathology (biopsy, cytology, molecular and genetic examination, autopsy.
• Disease. Etiology of diseases: physical, chemical, nutritional, biological causes of disease. Genetic causes and enviromental factors.

Teaching methods

Pathology course consists of lectures and practical classes. Practical classes include two parts: histopathological practices (with demonstration of microscopic and macroscopic findings of bioptic and auroptic samples) and autoptical practices (with demonstration of pathological anatomical autopsies).

Assessment methods

The course of pathology is closed by oral exam covering three sets of topics: general pathology, systemic pathology and oncology. The list of these topics is available to the students in advance. Attendance is compulsory, knowledge of the students is periodically tested during the practical classes. Testing is oral or by written tests.

Language of instruction

Czech
