DEPARTMENT OF RADIOLOGY

OVERVIEW

The Department of Medicine is one of the oldest in the College. It seeks to provide the most current level of education in Medicine to its students via teaching, clinical sessions and problem based learning. In view of modern aspects of medicine, recombinant DNA knowledge is emphasised during training.

OBJECTIVES

The purpose of the entire course on Medicine is

1. To introduce the student to the patient. The student is taught through lectures and ward teachings: the basic techniques of interviewing and physical examination necessary to prepare him or her to start the clerkship in medicine in introductory posting. At the end of this posting the student should be able to elicit a medical history, perform a physical examination and develop appropriate attitudes relating to the “humanistic” approach to patient care.

2. To introduce the student to clinical diagnosis and treatment.
