Oral Pathology and Oral Medicine Graduate Course, with microscopy workshop. Copenhagen (Denmark).
This two-week course has been designed to provide a comprehensive review of the pathologic processes that affect the oral and maxillofacial areas, including major and minor salivary glands, jaws and oral mucosa. Neoplastic, inflammatory, odontogenic, fibro-osseous, developmental, and metabolic diseases are discussed with emphasis being placed on diagnostic criteria that would aid the practicing pathologist in establishing a diagnosis. Both lecture and microscopic slide review (light microscopy) with case discussions are utilized.
The Diploma is of 70 hours duration and was created by (late) Professor Jens Pindborg. Presently, it is organized by the University of Copenhagen School of Dentistry, Department of Oral Pathology and Oral Medicine.
The participants successfully pass a practical test in oral histo-pathology (identification of fifteen oral pathology cases under light microscopy) before being awarded the course certificate.
