| Systematic pathology II
(objectives)
At the end of this course, students will acquire how to identify the principal diseases of digestive tract and of the liver, how to discriminate among main digestive symptoms and define an appropriate diagnostic flowchart, for differential diagnosis, and how to hypothesize the correct medical management for gastroenterological and liver diseases. Moreover, students will study the physiology of the endocrine system and metabolism. They will analyze the causes and pathophysiological mechanisms of the main diseases of the endocrine system.
In addition, at the end of the program, students will know the main basics about:1) a right approach to renal disease 2) characterization of histological and morphological renal aspects 3) clinical tools and differential diagnosis in renal disease. Finally, the course aims to provide the students with the opportunity to systematically learn the pathological pictures of the genitourinary system. The student will be able to discriminate between the main signs and symptoms in order to identify a correct diagnostic procedure, to set the elements for a differential diagnosis. It will also be necessary to know the current therapeutic protocols.
