Identical coursesAims
Acquiring sufficient knowledge on the set-up and structure of the different organs, both macroscopic and microscopic, and on the coherence in systems of the organs of average human beings. Reasons for this are the relations between structure and function. Organs can optimally function when the structure is intact. Good insight into the structure is a necessary starting point in order to better understand functions and disorders. The different forms of treatment may influence the structure of tissue and organs. Medicines are dissolved in the human body by a number of organs.
