Department of Pathology

Goals

The goal of teaching pathology is to provide undergraduate students comprehensive knowledge of the causes and mechanisms of disease, in order to enable them to achieve complete understanding of the natural history and clinical manifestations of the disease

Objectives

Knowledge

  • Describe the structure and ultrastructure of a sick cell, understand cell degradation, cell death and repair.
  • Correlate structural and functional alterations in the sick cell.
  • Explain the Patho physiological processes which governs the maintenance of homeostasis,
  • Describe the mechanisms and patterns of tissue response to injury
  • Correlate the gross and microscopic alterations of different organ systems in common diseases
  • Develop an understanding of neoplastic changes.
  • Understand mechanisms diagnosis and management of common haematological disorders.

Skills

  • Describe the rationale and principles of technical procedures of diagnostic laboratory tests
  • Interpret diagnostic laboratory tests and correlate with clinical and morphological features diseases
  • Perform simple bedside tests on blood, urine and other biological fluid samples.
  • Draw a rational scheme of investigations aimed at diagnosing and managing common disorders.
  • Recognise morbid anatomical and histopathological changes for the diagnosis of common disorder. Introduction of “Communication Skills, Professionalism & Ethics in Medical Education
  • Modules” in 2nd Year MBBS Syllabus New Topic in Syllabus of Pathology (A.Y.2015-16 )

Integration

At the end of one year, the student shall be able to integrate the causes and mechanisms of disease most prevalent in India with their natural history for the understanding of their clinical course and management.
