The
Pathology Course is a full year course taught at the second
year level consisting of lectures, laboratory periods and
large and small group discussions.
The first part, known as General Pathology, is taught as a
pre-clinical subject and introduces the student to the study
of disease. Particular emphasis is given to basic and general pathologic
reactions to noxious stimuli.
The second part is taught throughout most of the year and
is known as Systemic Pathology. In this portion the subjects
are coordinated with didactic presentations of the basic sciences,
clinical departments and Pathophysiology. Clinical Laboratory
Diagnosis is integrated with Systemic Pathology. This affords
the opportunity for a close correlation in the teaching of
disease entities. The didactic lectures are completed with
gross and microscopic organ review, clinical laboratory exercises,
and large group discussions. |
