Study Guide

Objective

Clinical chemistry II (4,0 cr): Students are able to, under supervision, use the automated clinical chemistry analyzers applying their knowledge of the general principles of analysis, the function of the equipment and the concepts of clinical chemistry and immunochemistry. Students know how to carry out the daily basic maintenance of the equipment they use and the calibration and quality control according to the examination.
Pathology (3,0 cr): Students know the handling process of a histological specimen in the laboratory. Students master the tissue embedding technique, the tissue sectioning and the use of a microtome. Students are familiarised with immunohistochemical staining, they can identify the tissue components and know how to carry out histological and cytological staining and make a cytocentrifuge preparate. Students can tell apart benign cell changes from normal findings.
Clinical haematology II (2,0 cr): Students know immature blood cells and can assess the alterations which are seen in the blood count in connection with blood diseases. Students can identify findings in an aberrant blood film.

Content
