Base Knowledge
Anatomy, Histology, Histotecnology
Teaching Methodologies
In the theoretical classes there will be a detailed presentation of the program contents, using an expository, interrogative and active methodology with direct student’s participation.
In the practical classes will be use a demonstrative methodology of the concepts learned, with resolution and discussion of pratical problems, implementation of individual techniques and microscopic observation of histological slides.
Learning Results
– Differentiate technical procedures for different kinds of cytological material.
– Identify cellular patterns for respiratory cytology and gastro intestinal tract.
– Perform the screening with the interpretation and elaboration of the respective report.

Practice
– Understanding of the pre analytical phase. Concepts and examples:
– Collection and transport of samples
– Requirements and registrations. Care to be taken.
– Execution of smears in exfoliative cytology.
– Simulation of aspiration puncture collection and swab execution.
Staining Techniques: Papanicolaou, Giemsa and Hematoxylin Eosin.
-Execution of imprint.
-Execution of conventional “Cell Block”.
– Execution of the “Cell Block” from the remaining material of cytology in liquid medium.
-Microscope evaluation for quality control
-Screening of samples of the material studied in the theoretical: cervicovaginal cytology, strokes and urine.
