Basic Cardiovascular Pathology  

  Location: VAMC Path & Lab Medicine Service, 

Enrollment:  1 Minimum, 3 Maximum

Prerequisites:  Phase II

Duration: 1-3 months

Months Offered: February through August

This elective designed for students who plan to choose pathology (especially anatomic and/or cardiovascular pathology), cardiology or cardiovascular surgery as career track subspecialties. Practice correlations between invasive and noninvasive diagnostic techniques commonly used in clinical cardiology and using the gross and histomorphologic findings of current surgical pathology cases (from VAMC and MCGH&C) and autopsies together with current cardiovascular surgical techniques applicable to these cases, will be stressed. Students will be encouraged to formulate a project and begin investigations, which could lead to a publication.  (By arrangement with Dr. Freant.)
