Last update: prof. RNDr. Markéta Martínková, Ph.D. (13.02.2023)
The lecture is appointed for students of "biochemistry" and "clinical and toxicological analysis" and "medicine chemistry". However, the course is opened also for students of other related fields. The aim of the lecture is to introduce the basic terminology and methodology in clinical biochemistry with orientation on diagnostics respectively monitoring of the efficiency of a medical therapy. The biochemical nature of the pathobiochemical conditions and the diseases will be emphasized during the lectures. Examples of clinical interpretation of biochemical parameters are presented in the programme of the lecture with intention to prepare future clinical biochemists for communication with doctors.

Requirements to the exam -
Last update: RNDr. Michaela Čermáková, Ph.D. (12.05.2014)

There will be a written examination concerning topics presented during the lectures (see the syllabus of the lectures). At the end of each lecture I will mention several model questions from each topic. It is necessary to obtain 60% of total points number for successful examination term. In case of borderline results, the oral examination will take place.
