Course description |
Based on the understanding of Animal General Pathology, this learning course provides knowledge on morphological changes and pathological condition of lesions that appear in each organ or each organ system of animals as a course of Animal Special Pathology A at the 2nd semester of the 3rd grade and as a course of Animal Special Pathology B at the 1st semester of the 4th grade. Knowledge on this organ pathology plays an introductory role for clinical veterinary medicine. This knowledge also provides basics for toxicopatholological analysis of chemicals using experimental animals. |
Expected Learning |
In the course of Animal Special Pathology B, pathological lesions that appear in following organs in animals are dealt in terms of the understanding of pathogenesis as well as the comparative pathological viewpoint. 1. Urinary system: kidney, ureter, urinary bladder, urethral duct. 2. Reproductive system: testis, epididymis, male accessory sex organs, ovary, oviduct, uterus, placenta, external genital organs, mammary gland. 3. Endocrine system: pituitary gland, thyroid, parathyroid, adrenal gland. 4. Nervous system: brain, spinal cord, peripheral nerve. 5. Sensory organs: eye, ear. 6. Integument: skin. |
Course schedule |
In the class of Veterinary Special Pathology B, lecture is conducted on pathological conditions and pathogenesis of representative lesions that appear in following organs, following the class of Veterinary Special Pathology A at the 2nd semester of the 3rd grade. 1. Urinary system: kidney, ureter, urinary bladder, urethral duct. 2. Reproductive system: testis, epididymis, male accessory sex organs, ovary, oviduct, uterus, placenta, external genital organs, mammary gland. 3.

Message from instructor(s) |
Pathology is one of the academic disciplines required for the National Veterinary Medical Practitioners Qualifying Examination. Animal Pathology is positioned between basic veterinary classes and clinical classes, and thus, it is necessary to have knowledge on anatomy, histology, immunology, and microbiology to have appropriate understanding of lesions. It will be difficult to have appropriate understandings on clinical classes, such as veterinary surgery and veterinary internal medicine. |
