Course objectives
Main objective of the subject is to combine programmed teaching of two biomedical branches that occupy a key position among subjects of the theoretical study on medical faculties. The teaching lasts one year (2 semesters) and involves lectures and practices. Within section Histology and embryology II students of dentistry obtain informations concerning the microscopic structure and development of the digestive, urinary, reproductive,and nervous systems, sensory organs, endocrine glands and skin as well as embryology of circulatory system (development of the heart and vessels including the fetal blood circulation).
Medical histology deals with microscopic structure and functional features of cells, tissues and organs under normal conditions. The aim of histological lectures is to provide dentistry students with the essential knowledge of structure and function of cells, tissues and all important organ systems of the human body. At the end of lectures, students with knowledge acquired should be able to understand good most of functional relationships and regulatory mechanisms at all structural levels and to continue in effective study of further related medical branches as are pathologic anatomy and physiology. Main objectives of embryology and embryologic lectures addressed to students of dentistry can be summarized as follows: to give an appropriate sum of facts about course, staging and crucial principles of the human prenatal ontogeny; to learn the latest findings of development of individual organs or organ systems of the human, including developmental chronology and molecular embryology; to describe and analyze causes and mechanisms of the origin of birth defects with higher incidence.
Microscopic structure of organs of the orofacial system combined with their development is studied separately within the special subject Oral histology and embryology that follows after completion of histology and embryology.
