Characteristic of the subject
Tuition covers two morphological subjects. Tuition in histology includes cytology, general structure of normal human tissues and organs at light and electron microscopic levels. Morphology of cellular elements and characteristic components of extracellular matrix are emphasized. In the course of practical classes, students become familiar with basic differential diagnostics in identification of human tissues at light microscopic level and with basic histological techniques. In embryology, students receive knowledge about prenatal development of the human beings in the early phases of embryogenesis (1st – 3rd prenatal week).
