Clinical Pathology Rotation

Course Description

Course information provided by the 2015-2016 Catalog.

This two-week course consolidates principles of clinical pathology and provides students with additional experience in using clinical pathology data to help with interpretation, diagnosis and management of clinical cases, through the use of archived and current clinical cases.  Students will become more experienced and confident in examining blood and cytology smears, interpreting electrophoretogram results and working through clinical case material.  Students are required to write up an interesting case in "Case of the Month" format (see eClinPath.com). There is substantial interaction with clinical pathology faculty, staff and residents.  The case material can be somewhat tailored to the students' areas of interest.

Permission Note Enrollment limited to third- and fourth-year veterinary students who have completed Foundation Course V.

When Offered Fall, spring.
