THREE-DIMENSIONAL MODELING

Course objectives

The integrated course is aimed to allow to the student to: Know the etiologic bases and the pathogenic mechanisms of human diseases, and the fundamental physiopathological mechanisms of the main organs and apparatuses. Understand the fundamental pathogenetic and physiopathologic mechanisms of human diseases. Know how to perform the interventions aimed to the analysis of the main pathogenetic and physiopathologic mechanisms of human diseases and to interpet their results. Be aware that the knowledge of etiopathogenetic bases of diseases and of the physiopathologic processes is the essential substrate for the following clinical approach of human diseases.
