Learning outcomes

Module: ONCOLOGIA MEDICA
-------
The student will be able to perform the diagnostic process about the most frequent surgical disorders, to do the indication to surgery and to understand the main principles of the most common surgical techniques. Moreover he/she will be capable of interpreting the functional changes and clinical pictures about the most frequent post-surgical syndromes, such as gastrectomy, colectomy, partial pancreatectomy, and to do indication to imaging procedures in gastrointestinal disorders that can be surgically treated. This knowledge will be implemented by a comprehensive imaging approach to the diagnosis of the main surgical syndromes. As for traumatology, the student will be able ti know the main disorders of the skeletal system and to know the main therapeutic approache to the mosto frequent disorders. In clinical oncology, the student will know the main malignancies, to approach them from a diagnostic and therapeutic point of view and to communicate properly with the patient affected by oncologic disorders.
