Sustainable Development Goals
Aims
NEPHROPATHOLOGY
To provide evidence-based knowledge of the pathology of the main medical diseases of the kidney.
At the end of the course the student will be able to:
1) Know histopathology, immunofluorescence and ultrastructural (Transmission Electron Mycroscopy) of the main glomerular renal diseases.
2) Interpret tests and diagnostic investigations in order to diagnose kidney diseases.
3) To use the knowledge of normal histology and others basic disciplines in dealing with organ and/or apparatus pathologies.To be able to critically evaluate the commonly used diagnostic methods in pathology To know the indications of renal biopsy.
ENDOCRINE PATHOLOGY
Endocrine pathology is the subspecialty of surgical pathology which deals with the diagnosis and characterization of neoplastic and non-neoplastic diseases of organs of the endocrine system, including the thyroid, parathyroids, endocrine pancreas, and adrenal glands
