processing, analyzing of all autopsy findings under tutorial supervision. 3 to 6 units.
Instructors: Lewis and staff. Variable credit.
362. Autopsy Pathology. A detailed consideration of the morphologic, physiologic, and
biochemical manifestations of disease. Includes gross dissection, histologic examinations,
processing, analyzing of all autopsy findings under tutorial supervision. 3 to 6 units.
Instructors: Lewis and staff. Variable credit.
364. Systemic Pathology. This is the medical school and graduate course in the detailed
pathology of major organ systems. The course consists of lectures and seminars presenting
the latest scientific concepts of disease. Instructors: Bradford and staff. 3 units.
367. Special Topics in Pathology. Special problems in pathology will be studied with a
member of the senior staff; the subject matter will be individually arranged. Consent of
instructor required. Hours and credit to be arranged. 1 to 4 units. Instructors: Pizzo and staff.
Variable credit.
369. Ophthalmic Pathology. Lectures, seminars, and laboratory sessions. Review of the
normal anatomy and embryology of the eye as a basis for the study of the various ocular
disease processes. The more common diseases of the eye will be considered in detail.
Problems in ophthalmic pathology discussed together with methods of solving them.
Instructor: Klintworth. 3 units.
370. Developmental Pathology and Teratology. A systematic study of disease processes
involving the prenatal, natal, and postnatal period. Emphasis on developmental anatomy and
teratogenesis. The format includes seminars and clinicopathologic correlations derived from
gross and microscopic material. Prerequisites: Pathology 250 and anatomy and histology.
Instructor: Bradford. 3 units.
374. Pulmonary Pathology and Postmortem Pathophysiology. Emphasis will be on
pulmonary pathology and pathophysiology of infectious, metabolic, environmental, and
neoplastic diseases, and certain diseases of unknown etiology (for example, sarcoid, alveolar
proteinosis). Ventilatory experiments will be done on excised human lungs. Instructor:
Roggli and staff. 3 units.
377. Pathology of the Kidney. A comprehensive study of pathological, immunological, and
clinical features of the glomerulonephritis, and pyelonephritis, as well as of metabolic,
congenital, and neoplastic renal disorders. Lectures will be supplemented with gross and
microscopic specimens, demonstrations, and special library studies. Instructor: Howell. 3
units.
380. Diagnostic Immunology. Diagnostic and laboratory procedures used in evaluating
immunologic diseases: especially autoimmune, infectious, immunodeficiency, immunoproliferative,
and hypersensitivity disorders. Emphasis on the theoretical and practical aspects
of testing procedures and their proper interpretation. Consent of instructor required.
Instructors: R. Buckley, Howell, and Zwadyk. 2 units.
382. General Pathology for Toxicologists. General principles of pathology using examples
from human and experimental toxicological disease. Prerequisites: courses in biochemistry,
physiology, and histology (histology may be taken concurrently). Instructor: Staff. 3 units.
385. Molecular Aspects of Disease. Background, investigative methods, and recent
advances in understanding the molecular basis of selected diseases. In-depth focus on
selected diseases whose defects are known at genetic or molecular levels. Prerequisites:
introductory cell biology and biochemistry courses. Instructors: Hale and staff. 3 units.
