Characteristic of the subject
First part of the subject Histology and Embryology focuses on a description of general histology (i.e. the architecture of different types of tissues) and cytology (on the level of bright field and electron microscopy). It is followed by the first part of special histology referring to the microscopic architecture of organs of circulatory, respiratory and lymphatic systems, and then of the mouth cavity and teeth with stress on essential microscopic differential diagnosis of human tissues and organs. Embryology I includes the period of embryogenesis, particularly during the 1st – 5th week of the prenatal development of human embryo.

Characteristic of the subject
Histology focuses particularly on practical study of histological preparations with respect to both general and special histology. Some topics supplement those explained during either lectures or laboratory classes. Moreover, the processing of histological material is shown to students during the visit of histological laboratories (incl. EM and hard tissues/teeth processing). Lecture in embryology concerns the developmental principles in ontogenesis and the stem cells.
