| Short description: | The purpose of education is to provide students with knowledge about the regressive changes, circulatory disorders, pathology of various inflammatory processes of progressive change, morphological pathology of cancer and diseases of various systems and organs of the body and diseases of pets. Subject of the present technique autopsy rules for sampling and securing material for histopathological, microbiological, toxicological and serological tests, and also indicates the ability to use the knowledge in the diagnosis of diseases, including infectious diseases. |

| Learning outcomes: | Knowledge: - properly defines and describes the micro-and macroscopic lesions - explains the cause-and-effect relationships between observed patomorphological changes, and factors causing them - describes the intravital symptoms that corresponded to the observed postmortal changes - specifies the pathogenesis and cause of death based on autopsy study. Evaluates the need for any additional tests that may complete the diagnosis Skills: - properly performed the autopsy of animals and samples and saves material for additional studies (microbiological, histopathological, toxicological, etc.) - protects (fixes and describes) the material for histopathological examination - performs cytological preparations. After seeing specimen, can make a initial diagnosis Social competences: - performs an autopsy and determines the need to perform additional tests (cyto-and histopathology) of tissues and organs to complete the diagnosis |
| Assessment methods and assessment criteria: | Pathomorphology II: 50% lectures II, 50% laboratories II (evaluation of knowledge gained from lectures and the current laboratories) Final evaluation: 20% of the passing laboratories II, 80% exam Range of topics to complete the exam: lectures I + lectures II, laboratories I + laboratories II |
