Base Knowledge
Basic knowledge of anatomy, physiology and vascular pathology
Teaching Methodologies
The programme content is taught mainly through oral presentation, supplemented by audio-visual methods, always appealing to the direct intervention of the students and favouring a rich iconography rather than theoretical-descriptive teaching
Learning Results
The student must acquire knowledge of:
• Vascular Pathology.
The student must acquire skills of:
• Be able to distinguish and characterize the main pathologies presented in class, as well as the resources available
to its diagnosis and treatment alternatives.
The student must acquire competences of:
• The student should learn the characteristics of the main pathologies of vascular and therapeutic available.
