Vascular Phatology

Base Knowledge

Conhecimentos base na anatomia, fisiologia e Patologia vascular

Teaching Methodologies

The teaching of the program contents will be done mainly through oral exposure, complemented with audio-visual
methods, always appealing to the direct intervention of the students, favouring openly an abundant iconography
instead of the detriment of a 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.
