Tutorial film “Experimentally induced atherosclerosis in laboratory animal - part 1 and 2 “ is intended for students of Pathophysiology in General Medicine (VLA) and Dental Medicine (ZLA) courses. The film systematically shows the procedure to create an experimental model of atherosclerosis in laboratory animal, surgical techniques, tools and equipment as well as subsequent processing of biological material. It aims to serve as an introduction to the student´s practical work itself.

One of the possible approaches to study human diseases and their complexity is to use non-human experimental model organisms.Electronic downloadable textbook “Pathophysiology practicals for General Medicine and Dental Medicine courses“ for students of pathophysiology in General Medicine (VLA) and Dental Medicine (ZLA) courses aims to serve as a practical manual during the practicals and tutorials.
