Course program
The aim of the integrated course is to enable the student to use the information of the Integrated Pathologies as working tools to interpret the patient's symptoms and to approach the diagnosis of a specific clinical case. This implies the identification of the indications of the different imaging techniques and the choice of diagnostic laboratory and instrumental tests needed for the diagnosis. The course is organized in multidisciplinary seminars, with active student’s participation, focused on the development of the diagnostic algorithm of emblematic clinical situations that have been the topics of the parallel courses of Integrated Pathology. The final goal of the integrated Course is to allow the student to acquire behavioral protocols that introduce him to the practice of medicine and accompany him in the future. The integrated clinical seminars, with interdisciplinary participation of teachers are focused on evidence-based and gender-oriented medicine and social impact, clinical reasoning, problem-oriented and problem-solving issues
