Course objectives
The goal of the theoretical preparation part is to provide detailed information about methods that utilize the latest knowledge in the field with regard to the contemporary level of routine use of new procedures and technologies. The basics of indication and interpretation of laboratory procedures with regard to clinical units and diagnoses. In the practical preparation part, the goal is to gain practical skills on a level that will allow the graduates to easily be included in clinical laboratory work teams.;
Learning outcomes
A student will be able to do the following upon completing the course: Perform and verify analytical methods and release biochemical findings; Determine the correctness of extra-laboratory preanalytical procedures; Evaluate the quality of an analytical sample; Use the laboratory information system; Know and adhere to the policies of correct laboratory work during the preanalytical, analytical and postanalytical process;
