Course content
Lectures (three hours): 1. Introduction (history and importance of the field). Tissues (classification). Epithelia (by arrangement; by function - glands) 2. Ligament (cells, fibres, matrix, types of ligament). Cartilage (hyaline, elastic, fibrous). Bone (structure, ossification) 3. Muscles (smooth, transversely striated) 4. Nervous tissue (neuron, synapse, end; neuroglia). Summary of tissues. 5. Endocrine system (pituitary, thyroid, parathyroid, adrenal gland, epiphysis). 6. Skin system. 7. Cardiovascular system (arteries, veins, heart). 8. Lymphatic system (lymphatic vessels, nodes, spleen, thymus). 9. Digestive system. Respiratory system. 10. Genitals. Sensory organs. Seminars (four-hour blocks) 1. Collection of histological material. Fixation, watering, tissue slicing. 2. Basic staining (hematoxylin-eosin, alcial blue, van Gieson, trichromes). 3. Basic staining (Giemsa, staining for reticulin, elsatin, collagen) (2 hours). 4. Special staining (methyl violet and Congo red for amyloids, neurohistology). 5.

Learning activities and teaching methods
unspecified
Learning outcomes
Students will gain theoretical knowledge of histology, with a focus on practical skills and techniques used in basic routine examinations in health care.
Students will know the basic building principles and functions of tissues, the microscopic structure of selected organs of the human body and the interrelationships between tissues in organs. They will learn to identify individual tissues in histological sections. Students will be acquainted with the practical operation of the histopathological laboratory and will gain practical skills for the representation of individual tissue components using histological, histochemical and immunohistochemical methods as well as some molecular biological procedures.
