Learning objectives
This course will be mainly focused on the morphologic and molecular techniques applied to the study of pathologic cells and tissues, crucial to provide the pathologist with the best-quality cyto-histologic samples, equipped with all the additional informations necessary to reach the most accurate diagnosis for lesions of genital tract in woman, gastro-intestinal tract, breast pathology, uro-genital tract in male.
Moreover, the students will also acquire:
- autoptic principles and techniques for fetal and neonatal pathology
