About Study Course
Objective
Deepen students' theoretical knowledge and practical skills in dermatology and venerology necessary for rheumatologist specialty.
To train medical residents in rheumatology: to understand manifestations and processes of musculoskeletal and connective tissue diseases (autoimmune, inflammatory, infectious, immunodeficiency, metabolic pathologies) non-inflammatory osteoarthritis, vasculitis, generalised pathologies, as well as cutaneous and subcutaneous manifestations and processes, their role and importance in etiology, pathogenesis, diagnostics and clinic of rheumatic diseases. Treatment methods and basic principles of skin and venereal diseases that reduce or prevent damage of the joint support system or outbreak and progress of rheumatic disease. Application of diagnostic methods in dermatology and venereology for diagnostics, differential diagnostics and monitoring of the rheumatic disease dynamics.
Learning outcomes
