1. Overall Aims of Course
24
Pathology is the bridge between the basic science and clinical medicine. The main
aim of Pathology course is to provide the candidate with adequate, recognizable
and applicable knowledge and skills for common diseases and life threatening
illnesses affecting body organs and system. It helps the candidate to understand the
causes (aetiology) of disease, the mechanisms of its development (pathogenesis)
and the associated alterations of structure (morphologic changes) and function
(clinical manifestations and complications) to be able to determine the most likely
diagnosis of the disease and management of the patient when provided with the
clinical history, the anatomical lesions, and the laboratory data.
2. Intended Learning Outcomes of Course (ILOs)
a- Knowledge and Understanding:
By the end of the course the candidate will be able to:
a.1- Recognize and define the basic pathologic processes that disturb the structure
and function of the body including cell injury, tissue response to injury
(inflammation, healing and repair), haemodynamic disturbances, neoplasia,
infections and parasitic diseases.
a.2- List the causes of common diseases affecting organs or systems.
a.3- Explain the pathogenesis of common diseases affecting organs or systems
a.4- Recognize and describe the basic pathologic features (morphologic
alterations) including the gross and microscopic pictures of various common
diseases affecting organs and systems.
a.5- Describe how the pathological processes affect the structure and function of
the organ systems of the human body
a.6. Identify the functional consequences and clinical manifestations of common
diseases affecting specific organs or systems.
a.7-Explain the signs and symptoms of disease based on its pathogenesis, thereby
demonstrate clinical reasoning.
a.8- Interpret and identify the complications of common diseases.
a.9- Describe the effect of environmental factors on causation and geographical
variation of disease.
a.10- Recognize and be fully familiar with the terminology used in the
classification, investigation and description of disease, enabling effective
communication with professional colleagues and patients.
b-Intellectual Skills
By the end of the course the candidate will be able to:
25
b.1- Correlate the pathologic features of the disease with its clinical presentation,
